Ordered from Ron Ayers on 04/17. Called today and verified status.

Parts "appear to be en route to us"... I will get an email w/tracking number once they receive and send to Reini, and let you know.

With the week-o-rain-n-cold, I should have just sent my originals in!

Any issues with premature clutch wear after extended use of these modified parts? Stock clutch action on the FZ6 is the worst I've ever sampled, so I am definitely interested, but it makes me wonder why Yamaha didn't design these components this way from the start.

Is anyone using these parts with an FZ1 handlebar? Any issues there? I wouldn't think so, but even small changes in cable routing can make a difference...

Cable routing is not affected. There is no extra wear on the cable because I also modify the hanger to point straight.

I have much wider bars than the FZ1 bars and I have no problem.

Thanks,

Yeah, that will work fine. I'll probably make an initial run from what I have and then a second run.

Unfortunately I lost my hard drive this week (a nice 120g solid state drive too :eek:) and I think the part drawing was on it. I'm going to go through my backups, but if I can't find it I'll just draw it again. It shouldn't be too big a deal. Then it will just be up to calling the waterjet people and have them cut me a bunch of them, ordering stuff from mcmaster, etc. I'll do as much as I can before the end of the week.

Thanks Killernoodle. Sorry about your solid state hard drive, I'm sure you'll have more than enough money to get a new one after this batch of levers ;)

Do we have an approximate ETA for the first batch of levers? Next week or next month?
