shift lever

[2fast4urass2005]

Is the shifter that rockmountain sells a direct shifter or is it just for the link set up? it's the folding tusk lever..

It's for the link set up. I bought one, rode it for 10 min then it snapped off. IMO: GARBAGE!

just buy a yz250 f shifter it is the direct shifter

 

[madcow]

What's the advantage of a direct shifter? Less shifter slop?

 

[2fast4urass2005]

Well that is what I shall do raptordan what year does it matter? and for your question madcow it makes your shifts much smoother less notchy just feels 100 times better ive rode a warrior with a direct shifter felt great!!!compared to all my linkage ****.

Cool, maybe one day I'll do that. I've heard that you need to do some welding and cutting though. Will the yz250 shift just bolt on with almost no mods?

 

[2fast4urass2005]

From my understanding mad yes it will I know it will fit on the shaft that comes out of the motor just not sure how much longer it will be than stock or shorter I ordered minea few hours ago ill inform you when I get it on it was only 15 bucks plus shipping..

from ebay?

 

[madcow]

I'm looking up a few on ebay, but shipping to Canada might be too much. That's why I don't like buying cheap things on ebay, sometimes the shipping costs more than the item itself.

 

[lowbaby]

that sucks to pay $15 for something and then pay $25 for shipping.

 

[madcow]

It's not the bad in most cases. The shifter I'm looking at costs $10CAD and $10 USD to ship.

 

[2fast4urass2005]

mine came from rockymountain.

 

[madcow]

I just bought a more expensive aluminum lever from ebay, it ended up costing a dollar or two more than the stock one because of shipping. Hopefully it fits right.

Would that be the YZ250 or the YZ250F?

 

[Guest]

the yz250f

 

[james7734]

Thanks! SixSixone carries alloy shifter for like $30

99-07 yz250 lever fits perfect.... notice thats yz250 and not yz250F. However it may also work.... but i know for sure that the yz250 lever works.

 

[Guest]

[madcow]

What's the difference between the yz250 and yz250f?
