Clutch Lever SAG / Rehab?

[Gregory]

My clutch lever has a "sag" in it I think because the hole that the bolt goes through is wabbled out a bit.

I know levers are only about $15, but has anyone learned a quick cheap way to resleeve the hole?

It is one of those things that I could not worry about forever... but thought I would ask the experts anyway.

Drill and press in a brass or babbitt bushing.

Not worth the trouble unless you're really bored.

More seriously, the hole where the cable end goes has a tendency to waller out and get egg-shaped, and is quite likely worn out as well. It can then start to catch the cable end, which bends and very quickly breaks the cable. You could also create a bushing for this, but it's a little more intricate.

OEM levers are much better quality and only a few bucks more than the cheesy aftermarket replacements.

I put a bush through mine... timing/availability & a big trip demanded it.

I'm not really sure what that would do for you, doesn't that make it difficult to ride?
At least tell us what type of bush.
The curiosity is killing me.
