SHFT-PRO-KT75/Husq701-HYB CER
Hybrid Ceramic Bearing and F-Pro Shift Spring kit
$139.95
Virtually eliminate missed shifts and false neutrals. Quicker shifts.
The 701 has lazy shift action. Not what you want when Super Motard racing or jumping those doubles or splitting that lane.
Factory Pro's opinion is that if you nudge the bike out of one gear, it ought to go into the next gear.
The stock shifting, on the Husky 701, can be sketchy under even recreational use.
Some individual bikes, more than others, have a propensity for false neutrals and missed shifts in critical situations.
Changing the oil can make, maybe a 10% difference and perhaps moving the lever up or down can make a 10% difference - and this shift kit is a stunning 100% difference.
In other words, use any old oil and have your lever set almost anywhere realistic and it will still shift well.
Virtually eliminate missed shifts and false neutrals.
Installation: About 1-2 hours - no case splitting required. The clutch basket doesn't even have to be removed.
Available with Hybrid Ceramic Microbearing

Shift Kit FEEDBACK
I rode the 690 up 50 miles each way to some trails in southern Wisconsin yesterday. The shifting was spot on for both the 100 miles of tarmac and 30 miles in the dirt. Granted I was only shifting between 1st and 2nd in the dirt. The new lever lock arm you sent helped a bunch on the trail.

(KTM 690) Pro Shift Kit by Factory Pro.
To install - Just the support (rearset) for the foot peg and rear brake (which is the main swing arm pivot and 2 smaller bolts), along with the clutch cover.
The skid plate/engine guard had to be removed, too.
Overall it was pretty easy.

I emailed Marc inquiring about getting my race bike tuned and received a response back in 15 minutes. We set up a time to drop it off that weekend which really worked well for me because I work during the week. I couldn't be happier with the excellent customer service. Marc installed a custom shift kit in my bike and the difference is night and day. It shifts so smooth and quickly now.
THESE GUYS ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!
