Default How to change a Brembo front lever?

I must be losing it... Can't get this sod off. It's one of these:



But I think the lever fitment's the same as the more common forged Brembos. Know so, really. There's a sort of foldy clip number that holds the pivot rod in place, that's simple, but I can't figure out how to remove the adjustment mechanism- the lever's still attached to the mc by the adjustment rod and dial. Probably being stupid...

Can you undo the adjuster 'till it comes out?

Just so happens i stripped one down last week off my mates duke.

Where your adjustment knob is..look below that and you'll see a 1.5mm roll pin...knock that through, then proceed to unscrew it...hey presto.
This probably doesn't make any sense what so ever.
If you want pm me your number and i'll explain over the phone

This could be the first eber thread where ive given technical advice
