Brake Lever Change

I need to change my brake lever.

Has anyone done this? Any issues when I remove the lever? Will any springs come flying off? Do I have to bleed the hydralic fluid?

I replaced my bent one a few weeks ago (bike fell over). Extremely easy with just a flat screwdriver (if I recall). Nothing will fall out.

As I remember, There is a small nut on the bottom that you need to pay attention to when you remove the lever.

Thanks for your responses.

I am slowly replacing necessary parts on the swing.

Thats weird- my nut seems to be attached, or maybe it is just glued on.

Until you're standing over the drain in your driveway - then it will mysteriously drop out!

If I remeber correctly, the goldwing adjustable brake lever is compatable. Got to research where I saw that. Be back soon...

Hi Paul,

I did the research on the brake levers off the gold wings. Only the right lever would work with the Silverwing. On the Goldwing the left is a clutch lever so that side did not work at all.

You are right on the money Dennis, OEM are under $20 bucks each.

If you do lose the nut it is a 6mm cap nut 90201-415-000 about $2.90.

Thanks for all your help.

I installed the left one today, piece of cake.
