Yeah, The main reason I've gone with this one is the 90 degree boot makes hiding the wires much easier.

Well here is what I just finished, K pedal and K pivot with 900rr MC and some fabrication.

It works, but it definitely needs return spring.  The MC is not strong enough to bring it all the way up.

Details in my build here:

Thats the way to do it, the F pedal has a different mounting point and would have to be modified too, so thats the best fix right there...

I like the pedal,never considered that

Thanks, guys

It allows to adjust the lever against the pedal and then fine tune it using the M8 thread on the pushrod.

[dusterdude]

Yes it does,thats high on my list

Not sure what your plan is for the brake switch but I've been using these for my switch on a few bikes now. They are much simpler than the stock spring switch and have been really reliable.

Apologies if its a bit of a derail but how do you use that? Does it take the place of the OE pressure switches? gotta pic of it installed? (Sorry for the new guy Q's)

[wowbagger]

Yeah, just replace any banjo bolt with it and wire it as your switch instead on the stock pressure switch.

70,what gauge steel did you use for your caliper bracket?

[dusterdude]

I meant master cylinder bracket doh

[wowbagger]

P.abrera, here's a shot of one I used on another bike.

Duh. Got it thanks! guess i need to get out more Time to clean-up and streamline the front brake system with a single solid line. The OE 2 pc line with the old pressure switch and hard pipe by the caliper interrupting it is complicated and cluttered.

3/16" with M6 nuts welded on the back.

[dusterdude]

Groovy,one more thing,did you cut anything off the tube for the brake pedal shaft after you redesigned the pivot?

[70CB750]

Yes I did to better line up the MC push rod and the lever, not sure if it was necessary.

The original plan was to make a new pivot with fabricated pedal welded on it, reusing the alternated K original pivot was a sudden inspiration.

[dusterdude]

After i looked at mine i thought you did.i dont want to hack my frame,so im gonna rethink this thing

[70CB750]

I am sure it will work without it.  You could put spacers under the MC's M6 and between the push rod eye and the lever hole.

Or the lever could be S shaped, kinda drop towards the frame.

[dusterdude]

Thats true,ill ponder it.thanks
