Description
A bent or snapped shift lever has ended more than one good race day, and on the Honda CRF50/CRF70 it is one of the first parts to take a hit in a crash or a rock strike. ProTaper engineered this replacement to shrug off exactly that kind of abuse. For riders who log real trail hours or race regularly, the difference shows up as fewer missed shifts and one less thing to worry about when a bike goes down.
Feature and Benefit Highlights
- Folding shift tip pivots out of the way on impact instead of snapping off at the base
- Knurled grip surface on the tip keeps your boot from slipping off during muddy or wet conditions
- Precise O.E.M. fitment for the Honda CRF50/CRF70, matching the stock shift shaft spline and mounting geometry
- Finished to resist corrosion so the lever holds up through wash-downs and wet-weather rides
- Lightweight compared to steel OEM levers, with no meaningful flex penalty in normal shifting
Fitment is specific to the Honda CRF50/CRF70, matching the stock mounting geometry so installation is a bolt-on job with factory hardware and no aftermarket workarounds. Whether it is going on a weekend trail bike or a bike that lives at the track, this lever is the kind of part worth having on hand before the stock one fails, not after. IPD Racing keeps these in stock specifically because shift levers are a high-turnover part, and nobody wants to wait on a backordered lever before a race weekend.
