The hammerhead four stroke 450 brake pedal will work on the 250 two stroke as long as you have the pro kit installed on it.

I figured with my high weight and low ability ratio vs RV's low weight and high ability ratio, he should be ok lol
His mechanic said that he's not that picky and just wants to have fun. I'm sure we will set the sag to make him more comfortable on it

Maybe they'll put their own suspension on the bike and let you keep it as their way of saying.... Thank You.
