Thats no problem.
I've finished fabricating all 10 levers I've received and finally got my blasting cabinet in so I can start powder coating tomorrow. They should be shipped out Thursday morning... so if you're one of the 10 on the "parts received" list, expect to get your levers in the mail early next week

I just took a look at the washers I got from mcmaster and they aren't going to work. The washers keep the part that pivots on the end of the lever from rubbing the powder coat offf the levers.
In happier news, all 10 levers have been blasted and coated- they look quite nice actually!

One more thing I just figured out: the little hair pin cotter pins on the clevis pins suck! They don't really stay on the clevis pins very well and will most likely rattle out.
I'm just going to order the circlip style pins I got last time and just stick with those. Ordering the new washers too. Looks like the parts will be shipping early next week

No worries, killer. I'm sure most of us would rather wait a few more days rather than get stuck out on the road because of a missing pin.
Besides, we've got all summer to enjoy your mod. Might as well do it once and do it right. Thanks for keeping us updated on your progress.

Yes, no rush here since it is snowing outside. Take your time and I'm sure the results will be great.

Likewise, definitely willing to wait to have it done right too. I'm actually glad you're not going with the cotter pins, I've never been a big fan. And they're ugly too.
I agree with the others. Take what time you need. I would sooner '"buy it once, for life" than have to mess around with a defective product.
Besides... it's snowing here too.

Anyone know where I can buy a new lever to send straight to killernoodle so I don't have to take mine off...
If you're still doing them?

killernoodle has lined up an independent supplier for levers, but not the brackets, which he can speak to the details of, but:
I see you're in OH, not that far from me, or Canada. I ordered both parts from a large dealer in Toronto. I can't recall or locate the dealer name (I got the reference from Yamaha Canada, who only sells them through their dealer network) but they had several in-stock, and encouraged more orders.
If you're willing to pay to have them shipped internationally and make a few phone calls to arrange it, you can have them at your door fairly quickly.
