    ARC levers

    Just ordered an ARC folding brake lever for the KTM. I bent the stocker like day one. Now I broke the throttle cable guide as well. Seems like I need a little protection for my right hand...

    They have a billet clamp that fortifies the cable guides. Ordered that as well. I've been hard on this thing for a brandy new work of art.

    Re: ARC levers

    One of the first things I did with my 350 was put the ASV folding levers on it. I have a really bad habit of falling and bending or breaking levers, and I didn't want to mess around with the hydraulic clutch. I never bent those levers, even though I crashed and cartwheeled the bike a couple of times. I even managed to bend 2 pair of 1 1/8 bars.

    Wow, and I figured being a newb I'd be the one who's hard on equipment?

    How's ARC compare to ASV?

    I think a little tougher since the lever handle is a hard, but bendable plastic.

    Replaced the throttle cables today. Holy cow are those guides chintzy. I hope the billet support does the trick. Of course, that's not here til next week... Can the new cable survive until then? Place your bets.
