the handle itself is secured with 2 screws one on side, one in center into shaft.

thanks,I see a grease niple on the the end of the pin but I do not see any screws whats left of the broken sleave that goes over the pin and to shift in and out of gear it seems super stiff I am asuming that is why the shifter leaver broke in the first place,is there any splines on the shaft that the lever goes on?
