Remove: horn / signals / clutch perch?
« on: April 10, 2007, 12:13:18 PM »
Since I don't have signals or a horn, and plan on going with bar-end mirrors, I'd like to remove that big ugly thing from my clubman bars.

Biggest problem is, I'm cheap.  So far, I've only found REALLY nice (read: expensive) replacements.

Anyone know where I can find a cheap (universal?) clamp for my 78 CB750K clutch?  ???

www.cycleexchange.net

doesn't seem to be a store - more like a web domain for sale.  When you get time, could you confirm?

Anyone else?

Thanks

I just went to the local Kawasaki shop and asked the service manager what he had in the used bin.
They usually have all sorts of used levers for both clutch and brake masters.
You can often get them for a cold case of "PREMIUM" beer. Don't insult them with the piss we normally drink.

I just went to the local bike shop and asked what they had. The guy brought me right over to the dirtbike accessory rack and picked a clutch and perch right off. I don't remember what the prrice was, but it was pretty cheap. Moose, I think.
