This shifter feels no different than the numerous ones I had when driving Honda's... They all felt stiff at first!
The only problem I have with it is the rattle sound it make under WOT!
Once again, I've had about 100+ passes at the drag strip over the past few years with this short shifter and I've had no tranny issues and I still have the original OEM clutch too!

Alot of the short shifters I have seen are like this. I never cared for them.
Honestly, a short shifter in my eyes just makes up for lack of shifting skill.
Chances are you do NOT shift any faster or better with it. . . as your post apparently shows.
Ditch it!

well i have the B&M on my z since 1 year, had no problems with it, at least for now...
but sometimes when i shift to 5th gear under WOT i hear a sound, i actually need to replace the syncro.
the question is, is this sound caused by the short shifter ? :/ :/

guys, i had a major prob today that i lost my 4th gears after 3 time of drag ... after a while ... there's is no more gears AT ALL no 1st, 2nd, 3rd, --> 6th grear . THE B&M SHIFTER is blocked in ''traffic jam'' .... its really a long story ... i'll will go back to the OEM shifter ... be carefull guys ...
