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

[Kathy Kost <kathyk@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Guess I never realized that you can strip the paint off the thing!  I
may end up doing that.  If I decided I liked the black, it might be interesting
to see if the 99 Tiger brake lever would fit as well, hence a matched
set.   Anyway, thanks, at least I know I have some options.

Thanks for the part number!  Another option. :-)  The lever cost with tax
around $22.  I do have the part number but it's at home, so I'll post it
tonight.

And Tai, I've never compared it to a Daytona lever so I don't know how
the bend in it compares.  But I can say that it has a significant bend.
I'll measure it tonight and post that info with the part number.
I held it up to the bike and it makes an incredible difference.  No more
reach problem.
