So I finally got the bike back on the road and was riding to work this morning. I go to shift and there's nothing there! The bolt holding the linkage on fell off when I was riding. I got the thing to work in 1st after some inspection. I think there's a spacer or something in there too right? I have no idea how I'm going to replace this to get it home.

Ok, I found some old threads on this. Looks like I posted prematurely.

My bolt fell off when I was shifting into second with my girlfriend on back and a gang of bikers behind me lol. Talk about embarrassing. Luckily the bolt and washers stayed in the linkage though
