I recently had to change my clutch levers, some are a pain in the a** to remove because rust may affect the screw.
If this is the case you'll need to use a vice-grip to use that as a leverage.

If it all fails, you cant take the unit off and take it to a motorcycle shop and they should be able to unscrew the old lever out. They did it free for me.

On a scale of 1-10.... 1 being the easiest.... Definitly has to be a 1. A wrench and a half a brain is all that is needed.

Just go look at the bike and the screws that hold the levers in. If you can't figure it out please bring your bike to a dealer or mechanic for all of the work you need done lol. Its simple.

my screw for the front break lever came loose yesterday when riding. i almost lost it on the highway. scared the crap out of me cause all i had was the rear one. so its just one screw holding thebreak lever, should not be hard at all
