Clutch lever for E brake delete mod?

Gusaroo · 02-05-2012, 04:20 PM

Is there a clutch perch I can use if I remove the parking brake (since I dont need the second handle)? Due to the clutch safety switch (for starting) you can't just use a regular MX perch. I'm thinking of cutting the top of the perch off and grinding it smooth. Any ideas...pics?
thx J

Here's what i did, i bought a clutch lever off ebay for $25 and the kill switch of ebay for $30

I bought an mx one and it worked fine. That's with the blob still on.

Look up "blob removal". Even if you leave the "blob", there is lots or related info about tossing that stock perch and the types of replacements.

I did shave the original one on my quad before I removed the blob. I was going to do it on the kids too (in the pic) but I picked up that clutch lever and perch for $15 or so at a local shop. The handle has a shorter reach as well so it worked out good for his smaller hands.

All you have to do is cut and tie the 2 wires from the safety switch and you bypass it. It will start without pulling in the clutch in N but just roll a bit in gear. no big deal really

Good stuff guys! I didn't really want to remove the safety switch because my kids are always sitting and playing on the quad in the garage, I'm afraid of a mishap.

Don't leave the key in it

@biggiej42...that would be too easy, I need a belt and suspenders!

Is it possible to keep the stock perch but get rid of the parking brake line?

cataway · 02-12-2012, 03:51 PM

yes

THE "KFX" LEGEND · 02-12-2012, 06:11 PM

But what about the starting thing to do with the clutch I don't know what it's called

cataway · 02-12-2012, 06:20 PM

disengaging the clutch . you should do that evey time you start it

pnisher86 · 02-12-2012, 07:23 PM

I just ordered a new clutch perch and blockoff plate, my question is how do I get rid of the rest of the blob, my choke is on it,

Gusaroo · 02-12-2012, 10:19 PM

Here is my low buck solution, I didn't want to remove the clutch safety switch, so I decide to shave the e-brake crap off the stock perch.

Before:

After cutting off top part of perch (aka blob):
