Brake / clutch lever needed
« on: 24.01. 2015 00:39 »
I would like to buy / swap /sell a lever to match one of the two that I have to give me a pair. My two levers came with my 51 A10 project but as shown in the attached photo's they are not identical. They are for 7/8th handle bars. I believe they are original levers of the period but would appreciate conformation of this if you can tell from the photo's.
The left hand lever is marked,(as best I can tell) PD No 8432 but neither has any other brand. What type / brand are they? They both carry some wear / damage marks which I hope is clear in the photo's.

Thanks Russ

They look like the originals, Russ.
Dip switch mounts on the left pad, horn button on the right. Tapped 5BA.
I will have a look at some I have here to see if the dimensions are the same.

I had a look at my stock of levers, Russ.
Most were 28mm wide, a couple were 35.
