| + | A stainless steel plate (5-1/2" long, 7/8” wide and 1/16” thick) was used here. \\ | ||
| + | Drill a 5/16” hole at one end and a 3/16” hole at the other. \\ | ||
| + | And another 5/16” hole 2” up the plate from the 3/16 end (this hole is for the push rod mounting). \\ | ||
| + | This plate mounts between the center locating bolt of the drive belt cover and the rear brake master cylinder pushrod mount. \\ | ||
| + | You will need to buy two new bolts along with some lock nuts and washers; \\ | ||
| + | One bolt to replace the locating bolt of the drive belt cover (it will need to be 1/2" longer) \\ | ||
| + | And one bolt for the rear brake master cylinder pushrod mount (1-1/2” longer). \\ | ||
| + | The brake lever plate needs to float. \\ | ||
| + | It must pivot on the center locating bolt of the drive belt cover and the rear brake master cylinder pushrod bolt (must be free to move). \\ | ||
| + | That is why you need to use lock nuts and washers to lock the bolts in place and allow some endplay for the brake lever plate. \\ | ||
| + | Once that’s done all you need to do is make the brake pushrod using the same type of rod ends and rod as used for the gear change. \\ | ||
| + | |||
| + | And finally, 1-1/2" was cut off the pillion pegs to use those instead of the standard forward pegs. \\ | ||
| + | This reduced the width of the bike added to the look. \\ | ||
