    HELP...I need a brake lever...BAD

    I need an oem brake lever for an 05 R6. I ordered one that came in this afternoon, but they ordered the wrong one and I need to get one on my bike by Monday night. I'm attending the track day Tuesday and I don't have time ot order one.

    So if anybody has one lying around you want to sell. Please let me know.
    Thanks.

    I have an OEM R6 lever; can bring it up Monday night unless you want to grab it this weekend.

    I would put it in the "wanted" section, but thought I would stress the urgency. I was hoping somebody who replaced there stock levers with aftermarket, but still kept the OEM. Thanks.

    I gave Kitt my R1 levers a few months back - he may not have used them yet and might be able to lend you one to get you through the TD.

    They don't fit. I have an 06 R1 that I tried, but it doesn't fit in the perch. The dealer ordered an 05 R1 lever instead of an R6 lever and can't get one before Tuesday.

    Problem solved. Thanks everyone.

    Big thanks to Cycle Design who not only had an 05 lever, but also an 04...which for some strange reason is on my 05 R6. Baby girl hooked it up nice with $20 off to bring the price of the OEM down more to the aftermarket lever.
