It took longer to do that then replacing the shaft. The best part about fixing it right is that you know that it's fixed right. My $0.02, but do what you want.

    Doh'! This is the correct answer!

    The shifter off my 2 wheeler works and shifts. Now im going to get it off and chop the end of it of and weld the new end to the original shaft. The 2 wheelers shifter wont clear the recoil starter unless i have it vertically which Ive had recently. My shaft could be better but as long as it works Im not bothered.
