If you break your shifter paddle in a crash and can get hold of a replacement one, this is how to repair it.

You did the right thing salvaging from another shifter you already had, but Shimano isn't going to warranty the part since you took it apart. You can however order the new part from your local bike shop if they are a Shimano Dealer. It will be expensive and it will take a long time to get it. I broke my 9150 rear derailleur cage and took it to a bike shop they told me they could order the part, which they did but it took 4 months to get it. They had a new derailleur and I couldn't be down without a bike for a long time so I bought the new derailleur. When I say expensive, that half of the cage, which is carbon, cost me $140. The new derailleur was over $600. But I needed it. Now I have two. I kind of think I should try finding bargain 9150 levers and a front derailleur so I have them at the ready because I don't want to be in a position to replace the entire group as expensive as they are these days. I have no need for 12 speed either. I like the 11 speed.

My dealer didn't seem too optimistic about getting any kind of spares for 9200. Maybe it's still too early. Of course no warranty as it was me that broke it. But yes, it's a good idea to have some spares given how hard it is to get hold of anything these days.

@@CyclespeedTours Try a different bike shop. I know they can order Shimano parts if there is a part number. Sounds like that dealer you asked is just being lazy.

You will have to do a review on your Ducati one day :-)

The 950 Hypermotard. Yeah it's really a great bike, perfect for Mallorca. Very fast! I have the traction control set to 1 (0 is off, 5 is granny), and the wheelie control set to 2 (0 is you can flip it, 5 means almost no front lift at all). ABS set to 2 out of 5.

Are you ok? Did your shifter snap during a crash?

Thanks, all good, just a minor tumble. I guess my hand was in the wrong place at the wrong time....!
