Re: gear change lever?
do you literally just unscrew via the bot on the end of the rod and not the ball joint?

Re: gear change lever?
once you've got the footpeg asembly off you should be able to just unscrew the rod from the ball joint at the lever end

Re: gear change lever?
You can run it with just the bolt but if you've got some o rings put them on it

Re: gear change lever?
Don't muck about with crappy bolts and bodging o-rings on, do it properly with one of these. They hardly cost the earth and work very well. My SK5 has had one as a brake lever toe-peg for the past 11 months wioth no problems.
http://fixer-peg.co.uk/shop/category...ram=cid%3D3%26 From this  To this  I filed the scabby broken bit of the end of the lever smooth and fitted the new toepeg after painting the lever with silver Smoothrite... simple Last edited by Lozzo; 04-12-08 at 04:28 PM. |

Re: gear change lever?
A bit of fuel pipe works well to slide over the end.
