RE: got my new clutch lever...but it's black!

[Gaske David G DLVA <GaskeDG@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For another $15 or so you can get a brake lever off a Kawasuki ZX series
bike.  It is Lockhart Phillips number 240-1215, it is an exact fit, and most
shops carry them.  Oh, they are black, which is why this will work.  Also,
how much did the lever cost?  And do you have the Triumph part number, as I
have been thinking about going this route.

... or Scotch Brite the black finish off or get an ST lever, as I did.
