Product Information

Full details

The Apico Forged Clutch Lever is designed for motocross, enduro, and trials riders seeking a durable and factory-look replacement for OEM clutch levers. Its key benefit is superior strength and impact resistance, designed to bend rather than break during falls. A potential caveat is its specific fitment, requiring verification against your motorcycle model. This lever is crafted from durable materials using a cold forging process to enhance resilience against impacts, featuring a nylon sleeve on the holder for added protection.

FAQs

Is this lever compatible with models other than Honda CR 125/250?

This specific part number (LEC11SGP SLV FG) is designed for Honda CR 125/250. Apico offers a wide range of levers for other applications; please check their catalog for compatibility with your motorcycle.

How does the 'cold forged' process make the lever stronger?

Cold forging shapes metal at room temperature, creating a denser, stronger grain structure compared to casting or machining. This results in a lever that is more resistant to fracture and more likely to bend under stress, offering better resilience in impacts.

What is the purpose of the nylon sleeve on the holder?

The nylon sleeve allows the lever holder to rotate slightly upon impact. This feature helps absorb energy from a fall, preventing the holder or lever from snapping off and potentially allowing you to continue riding.

Do I need any special tools to install this lever?

Typically, standard metric wrenches and screwdrivers are sufficient for installation. Refer to your motorcycle's service manual for specific torque values and detailed procedures.

Will this lever improve my clutch performance?

While primarily designed for durability and as an OEM replacement, the precise construction can offer a solid and reliable feel at the clutch lever, contributing to consistent engagement. It does not inherently change the clutch's mechanical performance but ensures reliable operation.

How should I clean the silver finish?

Clean the lever with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners or tools that could scratch the anodized or painted finish.

Troubleshooting

Lever feels stiff or difficult to operate

Ensure the clutch cable is properly lubricated and adjusted. Check that the lever pivot bolt is clean and lightly greased. Verify no debris is obstructing the lever's movement.

Lever does not return to position smoothly

Re-check clutch cable adjustment for too much tension. Ensure the lever pivot bolt is not overtightened and the nylon sleeve is functioning correctly.

Fitment issue; lever does not align correctly

Confirm that you have purchased the correct lever model for your specific Honda CR 125/250 year. Verify all mounting points are clear of obstructions.

Lever bent after a minor fall

Gently attempt to bend the lever back to its original position. If the lever shows signs of stress or weakness, it is recommended to replace it to ensure reliable operation.
