Title: Rear brake clevis
Post by: Simonic on Friday, 05 April 2019, 10:52 PM
I'm looking for one of these or something similar . I think the brand name on this one is Zeta . I've checked their website and there's no listing for the 14 it's mainly dirt bike stuff .
The std one on the 14 just looks cheap and nasty .
I saw this pic in a very old thread on the forum. 
Thank you

I'm sure if you get the right thread the you'll get one to fit the gsx1400
Most bikes have very simular sized part for this job .
Good luck as if it works report back and I'm sure they'll sell loads of orders as it looks very trick and more upto the job

I had one fitted to mine - from memory, you need one from a Suzuki DR400; to fit it, the pin is a fraction larger than OEM, so you will need to drill out the brake pedal pin hole fractionally.

Check with @froudy as he has one fitted also

Thank you gentlemen.  The pic I've shown was a totally from a very old post on here and was of Froudys bike.  Now I have a dirt bike to use as a reference I'll see what I can find and report back .
