Hey Twinrock,

I may have one in a complete bottom end.  I won't have a chance to check it out until tomorrow night though, I'll let you know how I go.

The lever is unique to the TY.

Erm, maybe there's a road bike with the same/similar lever, I've never looked.

You can buy the lever and knuckle as an assembly from Yamaha shops.
You can modify an RD350 lever to fit. I think its the water cooled model.

Not cheap by any means but it's exactly what you need...

Twinrock,

I just check it out, sorry, I don't have the lever anymore.  I took a look around but can't find it, I think a friend might have permanently borrowed it for a project.
