yeah I saw that .... that doesnt adjust the **** though .... that just makes the **** stiffer or more loose .... for adjusting the rear brake as it wears ... not a position adjuster

my lever is about .5" lower then my peg


When I adjusted my first lever I had a hard time cause I was doing it the wrong way (raising the lever) remember the distance between where the bolt mounts to the lever and where it connects master cylinder needs to b smaller to lower the lever
