help replacing levers
Believe it or not I found nothing in a search so here is my question:how do you replace the clutch and front brake levers? I already swapped the clutch lever out with an aftermarket one and now it feels very loose, I think the brake lever is just going to cause more frustration, if anyone has good knowledge on this please help me out.
just a matter of removing the bolt and replacing the lever in.
you'll need to adjust your clutch cable with the round wheel on the clutch handle to get it right. remember you can also adjust the other end of the cable on the right side of the bike.

its just a simple unbolt-bolt? i dont know eactly how the levers work so im just curious if anything needs to be done with the lines
thanks!
yes, it is as unscrewing the nut, take out the bolt, replace lever....this is on brake side.
Clutch side is the same but you have to adjust the cable to be loose then remove the cable and install the same way just reversed.
Very easy to do.

thanks for the response... someone mentioned greasing the pivot bolt and making sure not to over-tighten it, would you agree?

Remember that you want a little jiggle in your clutch lever - you should be able to move it about 1/8" - 1/4" back and forth before the clutch cable starts to be pulled. This will keep you from overtightening the cable to the point where your clutch is never being fully disengaged, thus severely shortening its lifespan.
I bought some levers and was very iffy about putting them on of fear i might mess up the clutch or brake but after i finally did it i found out it was very easy took 15 minutes and u cant possibly mess nothing up so go 4 it
