OVERVIEW
The Moose by Hammerhead Premium Forged Shift Lever delivers precise, positive gear selection by replacing worn or cracked original equipment components. Constructed as a single unit from aerospace-grade 6061 forged aluminum, this upgraded shift hardware restores perfect shifting dynamics on your dirt bike. Engineered specifically for select KTM two-stroke and four-stroke models, it returns rock-solid cockpit control without compromising factory geometry.
ENGINEERING & PERFORMANCE
Aircraft-grade 6061 aluminum forms a monolithic lever arm that resists deformation under heavy foot pressure and crash impacts. The dedicated CNC-machined orange tip cuts deep traction knurling to maximize boot contact, ensuring consistent torque transfer during hard acceleration. A stainless steel return spring operates in tandem with the rigid alloy body to eliminate internal transmission stress and deliver smooth, repetitive shift action. The entire assembly wears a UV-resistant matte anodized layer that shields the structure from abrasive trail debris and chemical degradation.

WHY RIDERS CHOOSE THIS
Riders replace standard cast levers with this forged upgrade to eliminate frequent breaks caused by rock strikes and track crashes. The solid aluminum construction outperforms factory counterparts, while the aggressively knurled tip keeps riding boots securely planted for quicker downshifts and upshifts. Integrated stainless steel springs guarantee crisp click feedback throughout muddy race conditions, substantially reducing leg fatigue over full motos. Direct OEM mounting allows for a straightforward swap that enhances both reliability and cockpit aesthetics on motocross and enduro machines.
