Title: Monster 1100 evo clutch lever cross-compatability Post by: nickshelby500kr on October 19, 2012, 08:16:02 AM can any one tell me what all year monsters have clutch levers that are compatable with the monster evo? I checked the parts books becasue i have someone that will sell me a clutch lever from his 1100S but when i check the parts numbers, they are different
1100S part# 631.4.017.1A 1100EVO part# 631.4.046.1A i figured it may be because of the change to a wet clutch that they would have changed the master/lever combonation, so i checked the the 848 848EVO part# 631.4.017.1A so that obviously cant be why.

I think the differences would normally be ratio (distance between pivot bolt and plunger rod) and/or clutch switch tab (allows you to start in gear, with clutch lever pulled). CRG doesn't list a separate lever for the Evo. Rizoma list the same lever for both bikes. GillesTooling same same. Maybe this means that the levers are compatible - maybe they all missed something - maybe it's just different colors... I'm into details, so I would ask a dealer to show me both and measure/compare/study the crap out of both.

Title: Re: Monster 1100 evo clutch lever cross-compatability Post by: nickshelby500kr on October 20, 2012, 08:21:50 PM we didnt check the clutch switch tab, so i cannot say for sure. But they were all just silver levers. But besides the point, a guy from one of the other ducati forums had a spare lever from his 1100S that he sold me to me along with a tail for the license plate. So i will report back as to whether or not it is in fact the exact same lever. I will even check the weight to make sure its the same material.
