Rear brake lever Mod
Foxx4Beaver:
"mucho" better :lol:

Pretty trick. Be interested to see how that little bearing holds up, going to see a fair bit or leverage may exceed regular radial load. Just wondering if you guys have tried the brake pedal return spring delete mod? Go to fasst co and check out 2 things, the rear brake clevis and the return spring kit, it deletes the oem spring and looks trick. Ive ran it on my tecate 4 for a couple years now, ordered a kit for a kfx450 if im not mistaken. Holds up well
Foxx4Beaver:
they look good...reasonably priced too.
I don't know anyone using them, at least that I'm aware of....wouldn't mind some feedback on them, if anyone has any to share...

I had to cut some length off my plunger because the clevis added more length than my old oem clevis assembly. Other than that 10min job. I think you can get different spring rates on those little springs, just not sure if the different springs were available from fasst co or if I had them spec'd out from another company, it as a couple years a go now
sandblaster:
The bearing I used was a cheapo Chinese bearing so that I could see if I could make it work.
Even if it holds up for a few years I'll pop a new quality bearing in.
I've never tried one of the spring eliminators before but it looks like there is billet involved so I'll get one 8-)
