shifter mod

[serento]

so i want to do the shifter mod that everyone on here is doing, on my raptor 350. i went to my local dealership and told them i wanted to buy a shifter of a yz250. the first thing they asked me was is it for a 2 or 4 stroke. i didnt know what to get. they told me that the yz250 is 2 stroke and the yz250f is for 4 stroke. which one do i buy???? also trying to find somewhere to get some port and polish work done. i live near dallas,tx and.you would think i could find someone to do it, how much do this cost and can anyone help. thanks a bunch:atv:

2 stroke

I think it was determined the shifter is the same.

I posted this in another thread, but I had some questions about this mod again. Which fits better, the oem one or an aftermarket? Which fits the best without the most modding? Which works the best? Is one of higher quality than another?

I just don't want any unforseen headaches.

I got an MSR one off ebay for a yz250 from hellbound racing- it works like a charm. So long as you dont have pull start I dont think it matters.

 

[JonS]

yeah either 2 or 4 stroke.

 

[warrior89]

if you have pull start can you do the mod too?

 

[warriorkid23]

Yes but its at such a weird angle its easier to use the stock shifter. I took my pull start off for this reason.

I have one my buddy gave me from his 89 yz 250 and I bent it but it seems a bit tight for the foot

I just had this installed over the weekend and it is absolutely awesome! I dont know how others would stack up, but the bend the MSR one has is perfect.

i went to a dealership the 2 and 4 stroke are different bends? they still work hmm. and the direct shifter works with the pull start but you gotta cut and weld

 

[elwood]

best to use a banshee lever(it's longer) to cut and weld for clearing the pull start

 

[1998yamahawarrior]

Banshee shifter bolts up?

 

[elwood]

I read it a long time ago on here.

 

[1998yamahawarrior]

And I thought I'd read everything. lol

here is a link for big bear direct shifter http://www.yfm350.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15046 both have to go out farther so it should work for the pull start also maybe just ajust angles differently

here is a link for bigbear direct shifter http://www.yfm350.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15046 should just need to change angles some to clear it right

 

[1998yamahawarrior]

I may have to pick up a banshee shifter and see if it will bend right with no welding.
