Yes, the Apico Elite Gear Pedal is designed as an exact replacement for the OEM part, ensuring a direct fit for compatible Yamaha YZ models.

The 'Elite' designation refers to the premium colored anodized finish and the laser-etched Apico logos, which enhance the aesthetic appeal and provide a factory team look.

No, this specific pedal (GPF301 ELITE BKBU) is engineered for precise fitment on the Yamaha YZ125 (1996-2004), YZ250 (1989-2004), and YZ 80/85 (2002-2022). Using it on other models is not recommended and may cause fitment or operational issues.

The anodized finish is durable for normal riding conditions. However, it can be susceptible to scratches from impacts or abrasion and may fade with prolonged exposure to sunlight or certain cleaning agents.

Typically, standard metric socket and wrench tools are sufficient. Ensure you have the appropriate tools to remove and reinstall the mounting hardware.

Apico parts are designed to be an exact replacement to OEM parts and are manufactured to high standards, often in the UK or Europe, depending on the specific product line.

Ensure the pedal is correctly aligned and not binding against any other part of the motorcycle. Check that the mounting bolt is not overtightened. Clean any debris around the pivot point.

Verify that the return spring mechanism is functioning correctly and is properly attached to both the pedal and its anchor point. Ensure no cables or hoses are obstructing its movement.

This can occur from normal wear and tear or exposure to harsh chemicals. Avoid aggressive cleaning. Minor scratching is cosmetic; significant fading may indicate prolonged UV exposure.
