The M-50/M-65 sold in the US had a "twist grip" shifter on the handlebars (bicycle type). The accessory shown is a new one on me, I have a parts catalog for the M-50/M-65 and will look to see if it is listed.

Moped shifter on a WL?
Been trying to figure out how to do the foot shift on my 45", when I came across this old magazine (Swedish from -83) that showed a WL with a neat little lever. Under the pic it says: "The ric-rac mechanism from -52 was avalible as an option for Harleys small M-165".
Have'nt thought about this before but when I looked into it now I realized they ment M-65, & M-50. From what I've been able to find on the net it seems they used these shifters from -66 and at least up to the early 70's.
Does anyone know what's the deal with them, were the shifters a Harley thing? They were never sold in Sweden & I don't know anything about them, maybe someone has a shifter unit for sale?

Thanks Hank I'd appreciate it!Apehanger Hank said:
Zepplin, do you mean this? I think it looks kinda weird with that bent rod, the M 50/ M65 unit looks cleaner plus it has the shifter arm pointing up...
