1979 gs 425

[Guest]

I am looking to swap out the levers on my 425 for something smaller, and preferably in gold to match the color scheme I am planning. Any suggestions? When I search on eBay it usually says that the levers I like are not compatible with a '79.

Also, I am changing the seat position and switching to clubman bars. I want to add rear sets. What bike is popular for a swap? Or is there anything aftermarket that can work? I realize I will have to fabricate a bracket to mount them but I will worry about that later.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Hey Brian, nice 425! Not sure on levers but for rear sets you will probably find Raask has some that will suit but you'll need to check out their application data etc. Not sure where you are located but Google Raask and that should help you locate a dealer etc.

Thanks Pete! I have sent them an email. I see on the site they carry for the 1981 425. Hopefully they can help me out.

anodized levers and perches from any dirt bike will work for your clutch but you lose the mirror mount. sport bike master cylinders are available also - the popular colors match pretty closely. I ordered a set from parts unlimited last week in red for a VFR project happening. I think we dropped a couple hundred bucks for the pair of lever controls.
