Product Information

Full details

The Apico Brake Pedal is designed for motocross and off-road riders seeking enhanced grip and durability. Its key benefit is the combination of a forged aluminum shaft with a flexible, CNC-machined tip featuring a stainless steel tooth plate for superior traction and reduced mis-breaking. A potential caveat is the advanced design, which may require careful installation to ensure all features function optimally.

FAQs

What material is the Apico Brake Pedal made from?

The pedal shaft is manufactured from 7075-T6 aluminium, and the flexible tips are CNC machined billet aluminium with a stainless steel tooth plate and rubber insert.

How does the rotatable tip reduce damage?

The tip is spring-loaded and designed to spin under impact, such as when the bike falls or hits an obstacle in a rut. This rotation absorbs energy and prevents the tip or the main pedal shaft from bending or breaking.

What is the purpose of the cable brake snake?

The cable brake snake is an accessory that attaches to the pedal shaft and the motorcycle frame. It helps to prevent the pedal shaft from bending or breaking if the bike crashes or the pedal is hit forcefully from the side.

Will this pedal fit my motorcycle?

This pedal is designed for specific motorcycle models. You must verify compatibility with your bike's make, model, and year using Apico's fitment guide or your motorcycle's service manual before purchasing.

How do I maintain the grip of the pedal?

Regularly clean the shaft and tip to remove mud and debris. Ensure the stainless steel tooth plate is free from damage. Wear appropriate riding boots with good tread.

What is the benefit of the tooth plate over screws?

The integrated tooth plate replaces screws that could potentially loosen or fall out, ensuring the tip remains securely attached. It also provides a more durable and effective gripping surface.

Troubleshooting

Brake pedal feels loose or wobbly.

Check that the main mounting bolt is securely tightened. Ensure the splines on the pedal shaft and the motorcycle's output shaft are clean and properly engaged. Inspect for any wear on the splines.

Rotatable tip is stiff or does not spin freely.

Clean the tip and pivot area thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris. Inspect the spring mechanism for obstruction. Lightly lubricate the pivot if necessary, following manufacturer recommendations.

Brake light not functioning.

Ensure the brake pedal is correctly actuating the brake light switch. Check the switch itself for damage or wear, and verify its electrical connections are secure.

Reduced grip on the pedal.

Clean the ridged shaft and the tip thoroughly. Excessive mud, oil, or worn boot soles can reduce grip. Inspect the stainless steel tooth plate for damage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhanced grip due to ridged shaft and tooth plate tip.
  • Increased durability with CNC machined billet aluminum and stainless steel components.
  • Reduced risk of damage during impacts with the rotatable tip and pivot stop.
  • Prevents accidental tip detachment with integrated tooth plate.
  • Improved control and reduced mis-breaking incidents.

Cons

  • May require careful installation to ensure optimal function of the rotatable tip.
  • The advanced design might be more complex to service than simpler pedals.
  • Potential for the flexible tip to wear over extended periods of heavy use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Ensure the brake pedal mounting point on your motorcycle is clean and free of debris.
  2. Carefully slide the Apico brake pedal onto the spline, ensuring proper alignment.
  3. Secure the pedal using the appropriate hardware (typically supplied with the motorcycle or with the pedal, check manufacturer instructions).
  4. If your model requires it, attach the included cable brake snake to the pedal shaft and a secure point on the frame to prevent bending in collisions.
  5. Verify that the brake light switch is correctly engaged and functioning.

Compatibility:

This Apico Brake Pedal (MPN: BPF506 BLACK/RED) is designed to fit specific motorcycle models. Always verify compatibility with your motorcycle's make, model, and year before purchase. Consult your motorcycle's service manual or Apico's product fitment guide for confirmation.

Care:

  • Regularly clean the brake pedal, especially the tip and shaft, with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove mud, dirt, and grit.
  • Inspect the pedal for any signs of wear or damage, particularly on the tip and the rotatable mechanism.
  • Ensure the spring mechanism for the rotatable tip is free of obstruction and functions smoothly.
  • Check that the cable brake snake is securely attached and not causing undue stress.
  • Lubricate pivot points sparingly if recommended by Apico or your motorcycle manufacturer for smooth operation.
