Since I figured on doing upgrades as I rebuild my R, I decided I needed an adjustable front brake lever.
I scored one from a later model YZ.
The only problem I had was that it would flop forward, because it did'nt have the stopper like the stock one.
I solved that prblem by drilling a tiny hole for a torsion spring, which rests against the master and holds the lever against the piston nicely. Here is a pic.

nice looking, I like the lever...may i suggest you tighten up that bolt on the trees holding the shocks?
What are you using to polish? I use a bench grinder with a 6" wheel and the buffing compound sticks from Lowes. There are several types available for cleaning up scratches , cleaning the Alum., and then polishing. There are also compounds for steel, stainless steel, and Aluminum.There are 2 types of pads also, cleaning and buffing, I run one on each side. I save my worn down buffing pads when they get to about 3" and mount them on my hand grinder, works perfect for getting inside of rims. Dave

The day begins with 3WW
A set of Yamahondaman's billet fork caps would look nice on there.

All the bolts are getting replaced sometime soon. I think I will maybe just get the bolts I want as I go, but I have also been eyeballing those kits on ebay, as well.
I just don't know yet.
