Detent kit for what may I ask that dumb question, I could guess it being a gear shift setup?

I put a factory pro shift kit and detent arm in the my zx9r.
Its about a 4 beer job with the hardest part getting the clutch basket bolt off. I hired a rattle gun and that solved the problem.
You will need a clutch cover gasket and thats about it.

The one I put in looked like this, but it was before they had the shift star.
The stock detent arm looks like a mini pizza cutter with a rivet holding the 2 pits of metal together. The factory pro one has roller bearings..
One of the best mods I made, eliminated missed shifts and shifts much quicker.

yeah saw ya letter good work, get n e benefits for that? :)

after looking closer i noticed at the end of the detent arm it has the bearing i wasnt sure about and the kit has the gasket so it just means i have to get off my lazy arse and install it :)
