Squidley Posted August 9, 2009 Posted August 9, 2009 Have you thought about polishing your stock ones up?
Squidley Posted August 9, 2009 Posted August 9, 2009 Try here. Ted, He's got a 1st gen, I dont think it will fit.
awsmsrv Posted August 9, 2009 Posted August 9, 2009 Try here. That's for a 2nd gen. I believe he's looking for 1st gen levers. Doing a quick (not thorough) search, I couldn't find any.
Thom Posted August 9, 2009 Author Posted August 9, 2009 Have you thought about polishing your stock ones up? Squid , i need new ones because the brake lever is bent unpretty bad , only can use 2 fingers on it , most off the time it is ok but old lady season :backinmyday:will be here shortly and i know i,ll need more than 2 fingers on the brake yep i was looking for them too but no luck . i would like to go with FJR clutch and master cyl. but i am worryed about the switches . Thom
Wanderer Posted August 9, 2009 Posted August 9, 2009 Ted, He's got a 1st gen, I dont think it will fit. Yeah, sorry about that. I just went to "My Bike" at the site and thought it might get him on the right track. I thought I saw them some where for the 1st Gen, maybe I'm nuts.
Squeeze Posted August 9, 2009 Posted August 9, 2009 i would like to go with FJR clutch and master cyl. but i am worryed about the switches . Thom This would work, but you'll need to rewire the Switches. I'd use the mechanic Switches for Brake Light/Clutch Operation and mount hydraulic Switches for operating the Cruise Control. This would give you another Benefit, because the CC won't drop out until there's some Pressure built up in the Clutch or Brake Lines, means any Slack of the Levers won't affect the CC.

Thom You won't need a "T". These Switches are built into the Banjo Bolt ... Sorry, i don't where to get them in US, but here's a Pic ... http://www.micronsystems.de/pd1170165377.htm?categoryId=116
bongobobny Posted August 9, 2009 Posted August 9, 2009 Thom, I may have a set of levers that I polished up, not perfect but they are yours if I still have them. Give me a couple of days as we just got home and received the news about my friend James Gorom...

Squeeze Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 that is prefect ! if you can buy form the States i guess i can buy from Germany but you can read english and i suck at german well that is what google is for . thanks Thom Those are available in US also, i.e. http://www.spieglerusa.com/cfm/brakeacc.cfm, but if anything fails, i have them lying in the Closet. You'll need M10x1.25 Threads at a single Banjo Bolts for the FJR M/C's.
