Will it fit my Motorcycle or ATV?
NOTE: **Universal** The TLS-PS2 Powershift push button gear shift system will work on any motorcycle application, however there may be need for some simple bracket fabrication to enable the body end of the shifter to be mounted if your motorcycle has a trellis style frame or you decide not to mount the body end of the shifter into the frame directly.
Technical support
As with all Translogic products there is free technical support over the phone and by email for our customers should you require any assistance with the Powershift push button gear shifter installation.
Features Enables gearshifts to be carried out by pressing a button
This Powershift push button gear shifter is the most compact of all the push button gear shifter systems available which can select gears both up and down the gearbox. Neutral can be selected easily by momentarily pressing either the up or down buttons. The success of this innovative design is due to the control of the shifter action and its operating characteristics in being able to mimic the speed and movement of the human foot/hand during it's shift cycle culminating in the perfect gearshift simulation. The TLS-PS2 system comes with a CNC machined aluminium bracket which houses the 2 weather shift buttons and is suitable for mounting to 7/8" handle bars. Each button has gold plated contacts to ensure only the cleanest shift signal.
These latest Powershift systems now have faster repeating gearshifts resulting in successive gearshifts within 200ms! (Note that once the Powershift is installed gears can only be selected manually by `back driving' the shifter, contact Translogic Systems for more information if required.
General information
This Powershift push button gear shift system is electro-mechanical and therefore does not require any compressed air bottles or hoses like an air shifter system. The unique shifter is a linear actuator design (not solenoid) incorporating a DC motor, spinning up at 25,000 RPM, planetary gearbox, lead screw arrangement and operates on a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) drive system for total control and longevity.
The Powershift ECU requires a single ignition-on wire to be attached to a suitable ignition-on supply, like a head light or brake light +12volt supply wire. There are 2 ring terminal wires, battery positive and battery negative, that are simply placed on the battery terminals. The `F series' ECU or electronic control unit is mounted in a protected position on the vehicle. The Powershift shifter is mounted between the gear lever and a fixed point either on the engine or on the chassis.
The CNC handle bar bracket is mounted between the left hand handle bar grip and the switch gear mouldings. The Powershift shifter requires attaching between the gear lever and the chassis/frame or suitable custom made mounting bracket.
