Description
A worn or bent shifter changes how a bike feels underfoot long before it actually fails, and on the Kawasaki KX/RM Mini that translates into missed shifts at the worst moments. ProTaper built this lever to keep that feel consistent ride after ride. 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 Kawasaki KX/RM Mini, 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
The bolt pattern and shaft engagement on this lever are matched to the Kawasaki KX/RM Mini specifically, so there is no filing or fitting required once it is out of the box. Riders running this bike hard at the track or just putting in trail miles will get the same benefit: a lever that survives what the stock one could not. Pair it with a fresh set of footpegs or shift boot if the old ones took damage in the same crash that bent the original lever.
