Hawk 250 Shift lever

Skyd · 04-12-2021, 06:05 PM

Hey guys,

So I ordered a shift lever for my Hawk, an Emgo XR400 folding shifter. Looks nice, but I don't like it. I don't like how it goes on the bike, it rubs the front sprocket guard and while it's bent different it lands almost exactly where the stock one does.

Anyone have other/better suggestions under $30? I'm probably gonna send this one back.

Most of these shifters tend to have some sort of issue. I love my IMS shifter, but I had to replace the bolt with a button head allen to install and remove it in order to clear the aprocket cover. Once it is installed it has no issues. Just a minor faff getting it on and off.

got this one on the hawk and the brozz, I have no complaints, just make sure you loctite the bolt for peace of mind.
