V7 11 special brake lever

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi all.can anyone recommend a replacement front brake lever that has a larger or adjustable span?
I find the lever in my V7 very close to the bar when braking.  The span is very narrow.  I will bleed the brake to see if this makes a difference, but would prefer a larger span if available.

	Hi All, Just an update. I read that a Honda Deauville front brake lever fits the Earlier Breva 750. The Honda lever has a four way adjustable span. I looked at a Honda in a local bike shop and it looked very similar to the V7. I bought a Pattern lever for just under £15. It bolted straight on and is a perfect fit and works the brake switch. Very happy.
