FAQs
Is this gear pedal compatible with models outside the 2000-2013 range?
No, this specific Apico Forged Gear Pedal is designed for Husqvarna TE/TC 250/450 and CR/WR125 models manufactured between 2000 and 2013. Compatibility with other models is not guaranteed.
Does the pedal come with all necessary mounting hardware?
Yes, the Apico Forged Gear Pedal typically includes quality hardware for a secure fit, designed to be an exact replacement for OEM parts.
How durable is the natural satin finish?
The natural satin finish is designed for longevity and resistance to various environmental conditions. While durable, like any component subjected to off-road use, it may show cosmetic wear over extended periods of heavy use.
Can I install this pedal myself?
Yes, the pedal is designed as an exact OEM replacement and is generally straightforward to install for individuals with basic motorcycle maintenance knowledge and tools. If you are unsure, professional installation is recommended.
What makes forged aluminum better than standard aluminum for a gear pedal?
Forging is a manufacturing process that shapes metal using localized compressive forces. This process aligns the metal's grain structure, resulting in a significantly stronger, more durable, and less brittle component compared to cast or machined aluminum parts.
Will this pedal improve my shifting speed?
While the pedal itself doesn't directly increase shifting speed, its precise construction, responsive tip, and secure grip can contribute to more consistent and confident shifting, which indirectly helps riders execute faster gear changes.
Troubleshooting
Gear pedal feels stiff or difficult to move.
Check that the pedal is not obstructed by other parts of the motorcycle. Ensure the mounting hardware is not overtightened. Clean and lubricate the shifter shaft where the pedal pivots.
Gear changes are not engaging properly.
Verify that the pedal is correctly installed on the shifter shaft and that all hardware is secure. Ensure the pedal tip is making proper contact with the shift mechanism. Check for any damage to the internal shift components.
Pedal appears loose or wobbly.
Tighten the mounting bolt securing the pedal to the shifter shaft. Check for any wear on the shifter shaft itself or the inside of the pedal's pivot point. Replace any worn hardware.
