Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Apico Elite Forged Brake Lever follows standard off-road motorcycle maintenance procedures. Before beginning, ensure the bike is on a stable stand and the master cylinder area is clean of debris.
- Loosen the pivot bolt securing the old lever.
- Carefully remove the pivot pin and spring mechanism.
- Apply a light coat of high-quality motorcycle grease to the new lever pivot point.
- Align the Apico lever with the master cylinder perch and reinsert the pivot bolt.
- Tighten the bolt to the manufacturer's specified torque, ensuring the lever moves freely without excessive lateral play.
For maintenance, periodically inspect the pivot point for signs of wear and re-grease as necessary. Keep the blade free of excessive dirt build-up to maintain optimal grip.
