Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This brake pedal is specifically designed to fit Kawasaki KX250F models from 2005 to 2020 and Suzuki RM-Z250 models from 2005 to 2006. Always verify your motorcycle's make, model, and year against these specifications before purchase. It serves as an exact OEM replacement, meaning it utilizes existing mounting points.
Setup:
- Ensure your motorcycle is securely supported.
- Remove the old brake pedal.
- Attach the new Apico brake pedal using the original hardware or any new hardware provided.
- Connect the brake light switch mechanism if applicable.
- Install the included cable brake snake by securing it to the frame and the pedal shaft as per standard practice for your motorcycle.
- Ensure the brake pedal operates smoothly and returns to its neutral position.
Care:
- Cleaning: After each ride, clean the brake pedal with water and a mild degreaser. Use a soft brush to remove mud and debris from the shaft and tip. Dry thoroughly.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the pedal for any signs of damage, wear, or loose components. Pay close attention to the spring mechanism and the stainless steel tooth plate on the tip.
- Lubrication: The pivot point of the pedal should be kept clean and free of debris. A light application of appropriate lubricant can ensure smooth operation, but avoid over-lubricating, which can attract dirt.
