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.
The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.

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.

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.
