How fast is it with twin 200 xs ?

This time I wish I had been wrong, how bad is it ? Can it be rebuilt ?
If not do you want to sell the rest ?

Hi all,

Does anyone know where I can buy a 3 Lever Shifter from?

2 No. Gear Lever + 1 No. Bow Tank Lever.

I’ve tried Larby …. Unfortunately won’t fit.
I’ve tried Cyco …. Sadly won’t/doesn’t return calls.

Believe it or not, this is virtually the last component to be sourced and fitted prior to the big launch.

So any help would be appreciated.
Cheers
Steve

Unfortunately it's incomplete and expensive.

Especially since a new one of the same from Cye is apparently £275 (if it were possible to contact him

[Captain Chaos]

oh ok, I just assumed that if it was sitting there waiting to be fitted that was of greater benefit to you than waiting to get one from whichever other supplier you choose.

[TheMutzNuts]

Yeah well, You may be right.
I've just mailed the owner re: a sensible/realistic price. :o)

[Captain Chaos]

I thought they looked in quite nice condition when I see them, they seem to be exactly what you want (& the fitting type you need, which rules out may alternatives) and are sitting there............ seems a no brainer.

boat'd be nearly ready to rock n roll

[TheMutzNuts]

seems a no brainer.....does it!?....lmao

Lets look at the facts then eh!

Five year+ old shifter.....£200 requires knobs, op. hand engine gear cable bracket and top plate.... at extra cost.
oh! and requires polishing.

Brand new - out the box, refined design shifter......£275
Includes:
Longer bow tank lever
Phantom 25 ingraved top plate and knobs.
Of course, the gear cable bracket.
Oh and warrantee.

I was only trying to answer your question, Livorsi, Mercury, MY, Dana, Rex etc all wont fit (from what I can remember sticking my head in the P25).

Hence me thinking something that was sitting on side might be of help. Currently (and this is no slight at Cye, Ive always been over the moon with his supply) you are comparing the cost of the 2nd hand ones (which are actually looked like NOS would have been a better description) to the cost of a set of shifters you cant get hold of. Unicorns £25, lead time unavailable!

I did try!

Hope you get a set sorted steve, boat was looking very nice indeed last time I see it.

[Captain Chaos]

apologies, just thought of the more obvious choice. Salmon?

Yeah....we hadn't considered Salmon as it was thought his leadtime would be toooo long. However, think I will give him a call tomoro. Ya never know, right!

Thanks again Loza
