OVERVIEW
The Moose by Hammerhead Forged Shift Lever delivers upgraded shifting control and long-lasting durability for Yamaha off-road models, serving as a direct replacement for worn or damaged OEM components. Built as a stock-length forged shift lever from aircraft-grade 6061 aluminum, this component restores factory-correct geometry while providing superior strength against bending and impact. This lever fits a wide range of Yamaha machines, including motocross and trail applications from 1977 through 2026.
ENGINEERING & PERFORMANCE
