Title: Shifter cross reference
Post by: umberto on October 13, 2015, 06:24:35 AM

I won a $75 gift certificate from Torc1 Racing at the Warrior Nationals a few weeks back.  Unfortunately they don't have much for my bikes.  I thought I read somewhere that a KXF450 shifter would bolt on to a KX 500.  I have an 88 500 motor, would a 06-15 KXF shifter fit?  Thank you!

somewhere around 97 they made the spines larger I ebayed a newer shaft and then a 450 shifter will work

Do you know if that shifter would fit a 2004 KX 250?  I have some extra left over on the certificate.   :-D

Hammer Head designs will make one for you. They said just 10 dollars more what they usually charge. That is what i am going to do. I am going to get mine 15mm. longer so it fits better under my boot.
