Designed to match the reliability of OEM parts while providing a factory-inspired aesthetic, it is perfect for motocross and enduro riders who demand consistent shifting.

No, this specific part number (GPF232) is designed for 2016-2022 models only.
You will generally only need a standard metric socket set and a torque wrench to ensure the bolt is tightened to the manufacturer's recommended setting.
The material is designed to be highly corrosion-resistant, but regular cleaning is recommended to maintain the finish quality.
Typically, these pedals utilize the existing OEM mounting hardware from your motorcycle.
Forging creates a denser, stronger metallic structure that is far less prone to cracking under stress compared to traditional casting methods.
Ensure the mounting bolt is properly torqued to factory specifications and inspect the splines on the gear shaft for wear.
Check that the pedal is correctly indexed on the spline and that it is not contacting the engine case or plastics.
Clean the hinge area with a degreaser to remove dirt and apply a light silicone lubricant to the pivot spring.
This gear pedal is specifically engineered for Kawasaki KX450F models manufactured between 2016 and 2022. Installation involves removing the single mounting bolt on the splined gear shaft. It is highly recommended to apply a small amount of thread-locking compound to the bolt upon reinstallation to prevent loosening due to engine vibration. After installation, verify that the pedal does not rub against the engine casing throughout its full range of motion. For maintenance, periodically inspect the spring mechanism on the folding tip to ensure it remains free of debris and continues to snap back into position correctly. Clean the pedal with mild soap and water after each ride to keep the knurling clear of mud and grit.
