Great now please copy it and make them out of billet 6061, or at least the perch/adjuster. Then we can use the MSR levers on your perch and never break them.....I know I know sic idea! Its mine but you can have it

Its been on my computer screen for 2 years Yeah, I gotta make a batch, they would work great as brake levers for the 50 also! The one I designed didn't have the 3 hole positions though, I might have to bust out the calipers on that ****

Well we dont really need the levers, they dont break and if we could use the MSR pro ones on a custom made perch it would keep the cost down. becasue you wouldnt have to make a billet one or buy the roller bearing for it, so if you could just make a billet perch that accepts the MSR PRO levers youd be money If you do make a billet lever Id personally pay extra for it and it wouldnt need all 3 holes, just the EZ pull one....

Ive been planning to do this for a long time, but not having a mill makes it hard and Im busy with my fairings stays and a billet subframe Im making...If you do make them please dont forget about me

How about this Idea a perch that replaces the end cap/clamp of a radial master cylinder? Kinda hard to explain but basically the perch would replace the master cylinder clamp and you wouldnt have to put them beside eachother.
That way you dont need too much room and can get the clutch and brake real close, and the lever and leverage equal...
