Well, good luck with all, and keep us posted!

 

The new levers arrived yesterday evening - I'll get these mounted tomorrow, hopefully.
These are adjustable for length, 6-way adjustable for distance from grip to lever, and folding, for crash protection.

 

Those look nice. Look to be well made and light weight too. How's the rear sets coming? Can't wait to see it all on the bike

 

Hm. Never seen an adjustable length lever before.

 

Speaking of that, yesterday I built a small bench, and got my drill press set up.



The levers are going on....now!

 

I'd seen some before, but don't remember what brand they were - they were something reputable, like CRG, ASV, Rizoma, or something of the like, but I don't recall.

 

New Repsol levers mounted:

 

They look nice. I was wondering about the color combination, but I think it looks good.

 

I'm fine with it - anodized colors rarely match exactly how you might want, but as long as the part is not right next to the paint, it works OK.

 

I finally got some time today to work on my plan for modifying the OEM rearsets that I already polished.
I used my extra shift-side rearset, to establish a different pattern, and figure out which countersink tool would work the best - you'll see at the end, that the bottom row was used with countersink bits that didn't work out, but then I tried the last one, and.... bingo!

Hashed out a grid, to establish the hole centers:



Used a center puch to mark for the holes:





Put a little divet in to better visualize it:



And the final result of the practice piece - like I mentioned above, the bottom row was done with bits that didn't work out.
I'm going to change it just a touch for the actual work - the top and bottom lines of the kick-plate are not truly parallel with each other, so when I grid out the final piece, I'm gonna start at the top, and work down, and, instead of doing 6-6-5-5, from the bottom row to the top, I'm going to do 7-6-5-4.



I'm going to try to get these done tomorrow, but it may have to wait, and if so, I'll get them finished up after work on Monday and Tuesday.
