Hi all,
Hey whats the trick in removing the CLUTCH BRACKET from an XB9s.
I've got some new Brake & Clutch levers, however the bracket is showing signs of wear, lever is loose.
So decided to get a new bracket also.
Do I have to fully remove the Grips to get everything off.

(will this destroy the grip)
As it looks like these things are glued on.

Cheers

if it's just a little vertical play, the lever perch is pretty soft aluminum. With the lever removed, wrap the jaws of a set of pliers (to protect the finish on the perch), and squeeze it shut a bit until the lever fits tightly. Honestly, a brand new one may be just as bad.
