It was broke when I bought it from the breakers yard. Not changed it yet as I hadn't changed the clutch perch yet. I have now so will fit new levers soon.
Its not a legal requirement in the uk to have the ball on the end of the lever.

I stand to be corrected but I think that filing the ends to a point may be cause for a defect ticket in the U.K., it's a definite defect in Australia as the balls are there for pedestrian protection in the event of a collision with one!

Got a few new (secondhand) parts to fit recently. I found a set of 39mm CB900F forks in great condition so I bought them and some Yamaha Fazer BlueDot calipers for more stopping power.
Ive already got Wirth progressive springs to fit into them to.
Gonna have to make a bracket to attach calipers to fork legs and Im on the look out for some bigger radius discs that will fit interstate wheels.
