Stainless Steel Replacement for Kawasaki OEM Part # 13165-1122 (PAWL, CHANGE LEVER)
This Gear Change Pawl is the perfect component for any engine rebuild or restoration project. While not a performance modification, it is vital for ensuring smooth, crisp, and reliable shifting—a function often compromised by decades of wear on the original component.
The Restoration Difference
-
Superior 304 Stainless Steel: Unlike the original plated or treated steel, our pawl is laser-cut from high-grade 304 Stainless Steel. This material is inherently more resistant to corrosion and wear, ensuring the part maintains its perfect geometry for the life of the engine.
-
Restores Shifting Precision: The original pawl on older engines becomes worn and dull over time, leading to imprecise engagement, missed shifts, or a generally sloppy feel in the gear lever. Replacing it with a precision-cut stainless steel unit restores the tight, positive shifting action your bike had when new.
-
Essential Engine Rebuild Part: This is a must-have addition when you are splitting the cases or rebuilding the transmission. Ensure your gear change mechanism is flawless before buttoning up the engine.
