I have searched, and I found a lot of threads, but I am still not sure........

My levers are clobbered and I want new black ones.
I don't care about the lever adjustment feature.

I see a lot of black brake levers that list only for 1989.  Will these fit on my 1994?

Thanks,
Step

Adidasguy, your videos kick major rear. Goodjob!

From personal experience, the levers, and master cylinder, from a Hayabusa work, as well. Mine was from an 00-02. So, if you find a nice lever for a Hayabusa, it'll work.

Difference in master cylinders is 3/8 bore on the gs and 1/2 inch bore on the busa. Better lever feel, better brake feel. With stock suspension, you'll be bottoming out a hell of a lot.

I am liking the black. Cleaned it up nice.
NOS '89 brake lever.  Position is to the outside, but not too far.

Old lever - Hahahaa.

Thanks for the vids, Adidasguy.
I would've broke that sneaky clutch switch for sure, if you had not warned me!
