About Hammerhead Designs, Inc., the Shift Tip and the XR50
 

Hammerhead Designs was started in 2001 with the intent to provide new and better ergonomic parts and innovative accessories for Motocross bikes. One of our goals has been to design entirely new and unique products and the shift lever was the first part that we felt could be dramatically improved by providing a feature that would allow for the shifter to be repositioned to perfectly suit the riders size, shape, and preference. The result of over 18 months of prototyping and testing was our first product, the offset for length and vertically adjustable Shift Tip replacement shift lever tip for use on OEM shifter arms. Due to overwhelming response and at the request of many customers and top pro riders seeking a more high quality shifter, Hammerhead soon began producing Shift Lever Arms for use with our Shift Tips to create a complete Shift Lever Kit with Tips available in lengths from -10mm shorter than stock to +20mm longer, all with vertical adjustability.

Hammerhead Shift Lever Arms are cut from solid blocks of 6061 Aluminum and are designed for strength and durability far beyond that of stock and light years ahead of any other aftermarket product. In fact, there is nothing that compares to the quality of a Hammerhead Shifter.

SHIFT TIP
The early prototyping stages began with the concept of a fully adjustable shift lever arm that could be set up for any rider. After lengthy review and several prototype versions of the fully adjustable lever arm, we determined that it was not necessary that the shift lever be adjustable for length because once the rider selects the desired horizontal offset, that distance would remain fixed. We studied boot sizes and the distances of stock lever tips from the footpegs and were then able to design a variety of horizontally offset shift lever replacement tips from -10mm to +20mm. A sizing chart with recommendations for standard offset lengths from size 7 (m) to size 14 and beyond provides a standard guide for selecting the right tip. Custom tips with special configurations are also available as special orders.

For colors other than Red, specify in the Notes area on the order form for Blue, Green, or Gold Shift Tips.

HAMMERHEAD BRAKE KIT
Our latest product is a replacement Brake Lever Kit with the same variable length options and vertical adjustability of our Shift Lever Kits. Cut from solid blocks of 6061 Billet Aluminum, our Brake Lever Kits include a super strong Billet Lever Arm and a choice of Billet Tips available in Stock position, -5mm shorter than stock, +5mm longer than stock, and +10mm longer than stock. By changing out the Stainless Steel set screws on the Pedal Tip, the height can be changed from stock to lower or higher depending on rider preference. Unlike stock Brake Levers, the Hammerhead Brake Lever Tips fold out of the way if impacted. Our new Ano Slik coated Spring holds the Tip firmly in position and the stainless steel hardware keeps everything tight and corrosion free. To top it off, Hammerhead Brake kits come with a free Brake Clevis and Brake Snake, a $45 value!

FFor more budget conscious riders Hammerhead also offers replacement Brake Tips that fit on OEM brake arms with the same adjustability and folding feature at a much lower price.

OTHER NEW PRODUCTS
Always looking to produce new and better products, Hammerhead has added Dual Compound Handgrips, Billet Throttle Tubes, Case Savers, and Launch Control devices to our growing line of parts and accessories.
