Title: Brembo levers
Post by: RAT900 on May 21, 2010, 06:05:33 AM
OK the clutch master cylinder

piston plunger-and-pivot pin assembly

that seems to be permanently affixed to the lever  (brembo gold remote resv type)

some sort of epoxy on the back end of the plunger pin

and (I am assuming) an allen nut that also screws into the pivot pin and locks up the plunger threads?

Well where do I get replacements for these farkers?

They come along with a brand new lever.  :(
Or with a used lever.

Not available seperately AFAIK.

They are not permanently affixed.

Pick out the epoxy from the end of the pin, you'll find a slotted end on the pin.
Find the appropriate allen wrench for the setscrew, IIRC it's a 1mm.
Heat up the bugger with a heatgun ('cause the setscrew is loctited), and back off the setscrew.
Then you can unscrew the pin from the barrel.

Yup just got off the phone with Fred at Yoyodyne... :-\

I snapped off the allen key in the grub screw did dig out the back-end epoxy

72 bucks a pop for a new lever without complimentary locktite & epoxy pre-assembly

Thanks SD
