Just to say Hi, live in UK and have just bought a 93 TTR250 Open for a bit of Greenlane fun.Wanted to take off the gear change lever to straighten it up and unfortunately the nearside footpeg hanger is welded on and does not allow the gear lever enough play for removal. Is this standard??
As Martyn says, one of the POs has had an "off" and its bent the footpeg mount on the frame inboard slightly - doesn't have to be much to make it hard to get the gear lever off
