Well sorry, but I'm going to be lazy here & not explain how to install your shifter. I will provide you with a Youtube link that should be good enough for you get the idea.

It's done through the top, Im pretty sure that in the video the guy demonstrates this. Unless I linked a different video then what I remember.

The factory rich conditions mixed with an open exhaust and an incomplete burn thus a backfire.

Noobie I was hoping you figured out that taking out the factory shifter was just a reverse of what he did to install the new. Just repeat the process in reverse. it's obvious that you first need to remove the shift knob, then the shift boot & shifter surround to access the shifter itself.

Looks like typical Ebay junk sorry man. I would not buy that, but it's your money. Also I'm sure you will not find any product support from anyone other then the seller if they even can help you.
