1987-2004 KX500 Shift Detent Arm Kit 13236-1188

Replaces Kawasaki OEM Arm # 13236-1188 and Roller Wheel

Transform your shifter feel with our Detent Arm Upgrade Kit. This popular modification replaces the original, high-friction roller wheel on the Shift Drum Detent Arm with a high quality ball bearing and billet arm, providing a buttery-smooth and incredibly positive shift engagement! 

The Performance Upgrade

• Friction Reduction: Replaces the inefficient, stamped roller wheel with a high-quality ball bearing. This massive reduction in friction drastically lowers the effort required to move your shift lever!

• Built to Last: Engineered for maximum durability, the bearing resists binding and wear better than the stock wheel, providing reliable, consistent performance for seasons to come.

What's Included in the Kit

This comprehensive kit provides everything needed for a direct, hassle-free installation:

• Shift Drum Detent Arm: Our upgraded billet arm (replacing 13236-1188) modified to accept the bearing.

• Precision Ball Bearing

• Associated Hardware
