I originally wanted two, but I have to back out now. Thanks anyway though...

I found a few extra dollars from my income tax return and can now do this. I still want two of them. Can I still get in on this? I can go order parts at the Yamaha dealer tomorrow and rush them to you as soon as I receive them, if necessary.

Thanks a lot for all you're doing!

The parts were shipped on the 26th, according to the PSP web site. The USPS tracking system confirmes that the package was received at the USPS Sort Facility in Charlotte yesterday (Saturday).

If you are just now planning to order, I'd pass if I were you and wait for the second round when the cores from the first round come in. There is no guarantee everyone will send in cores and there is no guarantee you will be able to get 2, but the supplies of parts from dealers are starting to dry up I think.

If your status isn't represented properly below, please update it. If you have paid, please put your name in the list. I'm not the best at organization, so this will help me out quite a bit. Next step is to build a spreadsheet of handles, names and addresses. I really should have thought of that first.

I forgot to mention too: I lost the original clutch lever drawing file, so I decided to do something extra special for you guys: The lever is now gong to be slightly longer, with 4 holes instead of 3. The first hole is stock length, the rest are spaced .325" apart. Pivot to pivot, the farthest hole will be 2.75" vs stock 1.55". If the clutch shaft takes 50 inch pounds (theoretical number) to twist and the lever is 2.75" long, the force the cable must exert is 18.18 pounds. With the stock lever, the cable must exert 32.25 pounds. This will put even less strain on the cable and less strain on your hand as well. This also translates into a longer friction zone. Everyone wins!

I also opted to go for a stainless arm instead of mild steel and stainless shouldered bolts instead of pins this time around. I think you guys will like the updates.:rockon:

Ohhh.... well if you MUST make it better... I guess that's OK. :D

Not sure if you have my address - what is the best way for people to get you this?

I'm not complaining if I get a better product than I ordered. That's perfectly fine, and I salute your decision. :rockon:

BTW, now you'll get half of the bunch with already upgraded levers to order new ones... :BLAA:
