12oclocker Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 The MSR Pro Raptor EZ Pull lever I ordered would not fit on my LTR450.In fact, the stock clutch cable inner steel cable is oddly very long, and nothing but the stock lever would fit.So I drilled out my LTR450 clutch lever, put in a small collar with custom notches, And now my stock lever is an EZ pull lever.This mod should work for just about any bike, when drilling, start with a very small bit, and keep gradually increasing in size, you may have to drill it out like 7 times, but if you dont follow those steps, you will end up destroying the lever, because the bit will catch and oblong the hole.You dont have to add the collar, but I did. It came out of an old clutch lever from an 87 XR200 I think.Here are some pics of the mod... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetspeedz Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 Good tip another way to ease up the lever is a hydro conversion like i did on my k5 1k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetspeedz Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 depends on the ratio of the MC really and how long your fingers are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12oclocker Posted January 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 Here's a pic of my newest lever mod, this one came out really good!I had to deepen the slot with a dremel side cutting bit.This lever is actually EASIER to pull than a MSR Pro Raptor!!!

Bkizz Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 This is a pretty cool mod...now I just have to get the balls to start drilling. I would just be afraid there would not be enough slack in the cable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman88210 Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 The cable should have plenty of slack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bkizz Posted April 4, 2009 Report Share Posted April 4, 2009 The cable should have plenty of slackYea, now that I think about it, that is only about an extra 1/4 inch of cable length. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would just be afraid there would not be enough slack in the cable.i started very small and worked my way up to the proper size hole. it came out rather nicely too. waste of time imho..but hey whatever floats your boat i guesswhy? Buying one runs you like 40 bucks. The less fatigue you are subjected to the better imo.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
