Clutch Lever install mishap

[tonkoshala]

I was installing my crg levers today and ran into a problem. They did not come with the part that is needed for the clutch to engage. I went to remove the one from the stockers and it snapped in half. Tried to look up the part, but haven't had any luck....


Anyone know the part number or an alternative?

Just found out it's called the lever perch...any ideas where I can pick one up?

NO clutch perch means no ride for me

I don't think you can buy that part separately. Might need to buy a new stock lever just to get that part, else get it off someone's wrecked monster

Find someone who bought AVS levers, and buy their old stuff.

ASV levers come with one with their levers.

Talked to Ducati today and you actually have to buy the entire master cylinder. $200

Thanks for the tip darkstar. I posted in the parts wanted section, but I'm gonna start looking around now.

Do you mean the little pushrod and barrel assembly?

Can you post a pic of the broken part?

IIRC, in the past Ducati Seattle had replacements for those.

There's a *tiny* set screw in the barrel that locks the threaded pushrod in place.
Pick away as much of the loctite from the setscrew as you can, make sure the allen key fits well, apply some heat, and spin the setscrew out.
Pick away the loctite from the threaded part, make sure the allen key fits well, apply some heat, and spin it out.

Replace the threaded part with DucSea unit or make a copy from an M6 bolt.

Yeah I missed the tiny screw...Called Ducait Seattle same news from them...well a little better. You have to buy the lever for 119. Crossing fingers on someone having a spare laying around. Does anyone happen to know if it's 12mm or 8mm? I am just a fella who is completely self taught on all my garage knowhow. Trail and a LOT of error

12mm or 8mm?

Which part?

Try and visit a couple of local dealers.  Their parts shop might just have what you're looking for laying around. 

It amazes me what they have just sitting there sometimes.

The barrel...I got a PM from someone asking saying they might have what I need.

I've called several dealers and get the same response. I'm in Memphis TN and the closest Duc dealer to me is in Little Rock or Nashville.

you know... it looks a lot like you can just die cast one at home or even modify one of those furniture mounts (no idea what they are called ,but you know what im talking about if you've ever put together a cheap closet or a shelf or cabinet). thats the alternative to actually buying one. OR you can go on the DML and PM Motored Sports. he usually carries a lot of odds and ends.

I can't measure one right now, but my guess is that they're 10mm diameter.

Your (looks broken) pushrod has an M6x1.0 thread, as does the barrel.

If I can get the stub out of the barrel you think a dremel down a M6 bolt would work?
