Hey guys, I know this is not the right part of the site to post this but I'm in medium crisis. I just finished final assembly of a 77 cb550 cafe/brat build for a bike show in my city this weekend but 'Oh no' of course my standard 550 rear brake lever doesn't fit around the super sport 4-1 I acquired for it. If someone here has 75-78 supersport rear brake lever that I could buy and get shipped over for thursday it would be a favour most grand.

  If you fitted an F model exhaust to a K model frame, the lever *might* not be enough to fix your issue. The F model has a rod or bung or whatever it's called on the outside of the frame that moves the brake lever out.
