Thanks Chris - will give him a try.

The '97 lever will be different. They don't use the little dowel, they push directly on the cylinder pin.
I think they changed from '99 onwards??

You're right nelly (of course!), but Mr S is letting me have the lever, and it'll be working a 916 m/c, so all should be fine and dandy I hope!

One less thing to go wrong / fall off then :)

Mr S,

Nothing, and more importantly NOBODY will be falling off my bike!!!

:D

Case closed :)

got a lever off Mr S today and it fits just fine.
Thanks Mr S, guess I owes you a pint!
