Moose by Hammerhead Forged Shift Lever +20 mm Offset – Blue Fits Yamaha YZ80 / YZ85 / TTR230 / TTR225 (1977–2026) Made in USA

OVERVIEW

The Moose by Hammerhead Forged Shift Lever replaces worn factory components while delivering expanded toe clearance and precise shifting ergonomics for riders running larger boots. This direct-mount lever is constructed from aircraft-grade 6061 forged aluminum, engineered to serve as a durable, model-specific upgrade for Yamaha off-road and motocross machines. Its reinforced architecture ensures consistent gear engagement under heavy trail or track conditions.

ENGINEERING & PERFORMANCE

The +20 millimeter pivot offset repositions the actuation point forward, eliminating boot binding and allowing full rotational travel without contact interference. Aircraft-grade 6061 forged aluminum forms the main arm, delivering exceptional bend resistance and maintaining OEM-style geometry for accurate engagement. A CNC-machined tip paired with a high-tensile stainless steel spring guarantees smooth return action and predictable feedback, while the UV-stabilized matte blue anodizing prevents surface peeling and chemical wear during prolonged sun exposure.

WHY RIDERS CHOOSE THIS

Riders select this shifted-offset design when cramped factory positions interfere with confident gear selection during hard cornering or technical terrain navigation. The +20 mm offset physically repositions the actuation point forward, eliminating boot binding and allowing full rotation angles without contact interference. Combining a rigid forged base with a accurately machined tip reduces flex during aggressive kicks, translating mechanical force directly into positive shifts while minimizing wasted motion on dirt bike, motocross, and enduro platforms. Developed and assembled in the United States, it reliably endures abrasive trail debris and repeated impact long after standard levers would fail.
