I think a reversed shifter might put extra loads on the bushings. I've had one for about 7,000mi and it's gone loose. The total of 64,000mi have been on the original bushings. It's hard to say that wear was sped up by the lever or not. The rubber thing is further outboard by 2 inches.
It has the original cam plate so it has a reversed shift pattern. I don't have any problem going back and forth to my VFR but I had a harder time remembering shift pattern when I borrowed a right side, one up, three down original bike, go figure.
