New gear changer lever

Anybody got one for sale or no where I can get one?

Well... managed to drop my SV for the first time. 90 degree left-hand corner, black cab coming toward me on my side of the white line, touched the front brake like a numpty and the front wheel went.

Cabby ****ed off straight away and some nice fella on a Hornet stopped and helped me pick it up.

crash bung took the brunt of it luckily so a few scratches on the front fairing but the gear lever's had it.

I've looked everywhere... ebay etc and did a search here to find one... no joy...

You'll be lucky mste they're a bit like hens teeth they are!
A new one from mr suzuki will set you back about £55
Or demon tweaks used to sell one made by woodcraft or something like that for the same sort of price

Will it? I bought on from suzuki a couple of months ago and it was about £30! Still not cheap though.

If it's only the toe stub bit that has snapped off, it is possible to drill a hole through the end, tap a thread in the hole and screw a bolt into it. Mine has been like this for the past two years.

SRAD foot pegs and levers are the same, theres a SRAD one on ebay at the mo
Here's a nice short link instead of that enormous one that was here before which messed up the page layout.

Good advice, it is just the toe stub and I thought it looked like maybe it could be fixed... unfortunately I have none of the tools needed or any access to them... My next house will have to have a garage!

Thanks again for the heads up on ebay svrash.

If you've got all the bits, post it up to me and I'll sort it out... (well, better to send me a pic first to make sure it's doable). Pretty straightforward, done it a few times myself- all you need to do is clean up the end- grinder or hand file- then drill a hole and tap it to M8, and stick a bolt in. Best if you have the original tip, because the rubber slides right over the bolt. I'ev done my current lever twice now, it's a wee bit short but you'd hardly know it wasn't stock.
