ASV Brk lever for K5

[Hick]

Has anyone out there used the asv brk lever on their K5 if so how did you mount it.  I  am not sure how to attach the plunger to the lever it is a little different than the stock one.  I will call the company when i get a chance during bus hours but if someone out there has dealt with this I am all ears.

You don't attach the plunger.  There is an adjustable screw that pushes the plunger in.

[Hick]

So if i got this right you adjust that long screw in and then fit it into the hole on the back of the lever.  Does that sound right?  If so did you have any problems adjusting that screw i cant seem to get it to budge.

[Platypus]

I did not have any problems.  Make sure you loosen the large nut that holds the screw in place.

Copy thanks for the info thats how it looked but wanted to make sure before i screw something up.  Will try to today after work.

They work great. Wouldn't buy anything else.

Yeah I love the clutch lever have been using it for about four years.  Just got the break lever and having trouble installing it how do you get the long screw out of the plunger, mine is really tight or is that not right.  I am sure it is something stupid i am doing but i just cant figure it out and the climber doesn't really explain.

Well....I'm going to confess. Mine is a 2007 master cylinder on the AF in the pic. It had no bolt like that. Sorry.

[Hick]

Huh this is off my stock 2003. Thats a good looking bike you got there.  My motor is just about done and will have your reed spacer on it thanks again!

[Hick]

No one else out there has put asv on there break lever. I think i am going to cut the screw and fit it in the little hole on the lever.  No more suggestions out there?

Sorry. I ran a 92 CR250 lever on mine. Shorter and gave a better leverage ratio for more feel. Cam.

i know what you are talking about here. My 99 KX5 was the exact same way. I had a spare front master off of a 07 KX450 that I used. I saw that when I went to swap my ASV C5 brake lever on and got confused, looked at the later model 07 master cylinder and figured it would just be easier to swap the masters. I know this does not help you though.

Maybe call ASV? Their support department rocks majorly

Lever included. Also. little know fact....use a master cylinder off a Honda. The hose is on the back side out of harms way!
