R1 shift mod: prevent shift rod fouling on frame.

When I looked at it the other day, the rod fouled enough on the frame in my case that it made the gear lever stiff.

I see what yer saying, you could just set the lever to the position I want and then put a bend in the rod at that point. But then if and when you have to remove the l/h footpeg/rest its a pain in the arse to get off due to not being able to unscrew the rod. Just remembered the ball joints have a small allen bolt which is removeable so worst case have a slightly bent rod and undue said allen bolt.

At the end of the day its better to try and see if I make it better otherwise it will bug me for not trying.
