I think my Ripper took about a week to loosen up. Either that or I got used to it.

tri-ax;

Yeah, I think that I'm getting used to It already, 2nd gear is more fun to bang arround, I like being able to pull back from 5th & have 4th so close.
I can't wait for the gears.

It took me a few weeks. I'm not sure if it's the shifter loosening up or your arm just getting used to it. When I don't drive it for a while it seems stiff all over again.

Yeah I installed mine on Monday and LOVE IT. But I actually like the stiffness (is that even a word)

Stiffness;

I don't know if its a word but I can't think of any other way to describe it, I'd rather it stay a little stiff, or notchy...what ever word you use the shifter kicks major @$$
