   I've got a GE quickshift which I'm thinking of putting on my saxo vts however when it was on my saxo vtr the 1st and 2nd gear was hard to change gear. Could an uprated gear linkages/rods solve this problem???

   its rubbing on a bit of loom, 10mins and some cable ties will sort it. you cant miss the bit of loom, its wrapped in a fat bit of plastic tubing, and strangely enough.. right infront of your quickshift..

   check gearbox oil, you grease all the joints back up too,
