HOW DO I SHIFT A 2003 KX 250

Pull your clutch in on the left handlebar push the shifter lever down and let you clutch out slowly while giveing the bike a lil bit of gas. But if you don't know how to ride i wouldn't be jumping on a kx 250

I also have a kx 250 2003 and its very easy to shift once you get the hang of it start in neutral pull the cluthch in and push down on the foot gear selector for first. Now you should be in first gear with the cluthch pulled in. slowly and i mean slowlyu let the cluthch out till you feel it grab now pull it back in. what you felt was the bike want to start moving forward. now this time give it gas and slowly let the clutch out its going to start moving forward pull your feet up and ride then shift to second by pulling in the clutch and pulling up with your toe on the foot gear selector now let the clutch back out while your still rolling and now your in second repeat until your in 5th gear. to down shift pull in the clutch lever push down on the gear selector and you will be in fourth repeat until in first. good way to slow down also. just remember to give it more gas and let the clutch out slowly and youll be fine in higher gears u dont have to let it out aS SLOW. REPETITION IS THE MASTER OF ALL SKILLS

Assuming that you know how to operate a clutch, (the lever on left handle bar), your shifter is the pedal at the left foot peg. By clicking the lever down until it won't click anymore, your bike will be in 1st gear. Slide your toe under the pedal and click up to get to 2nd. (note: Neutral is between 1st and 2nd..1/2 click up from 1st to neutral, 1/2 click down from 2nd to neutral. To go from 2nd to 3rd, toe under shifter up one click and so on to 4th etc. To downshift, toe on top of shifter and click down. Good Luck

If you do not know how to shift gears, you should get some proper motorcycle training before attempting to ride. The phone book has many training agencys you can use.
