u just clip off the end of the clutch lever enough so its not hitting your mddle finger. oh and use a stock honda clutch adjuster, the msr one is ******* huge and gets in the way.

+1, u might want to also get some longer bolts so u can put nuts on the back of the clutch perch so u dont strip the threads in the perch.

Re: Setting up Clutch/HB Brembo

im running a msr lever now but it is shaved down just as much as the stock one. 02gsxr1000 master, i will take pics of the msr tomorrow. they are so close that my pointer finger gets hit with the hb lever, the levers act like scissors.

why did you cut that hb lever down so much... your loosing a lot of braking power...

rear hb braking power that you need for what???





im guessing he hasnt disabled his foot brake during the mod.. so if any 'rear' braking was needed- he would beable to get it.

Re: Setting up Clutch/HB Brembo

yah its ideal to have the hb on the inside of the clutch so your hitting closer to the end of the brake lever which means less work for more brake power.

Re: Setting up Clutch/HB Brembo

my clutch goes to the inside of the hb towards the triple. i do not like having to much hb. i also have a brembo with dual caliper so not much pressure is needed
