    Is the rear brake lever adjustable by the rod?

    I just replaced my exhaust system and my rear break pedal touches my new exhaust. I removed the lever, grinded the bottom of it slightly but it still touches lightly. I've noticed there''s a few nuts on the rod that activates the rear "selenoid" is this adjustable?

    Thanks.

        Yes it is adjustable via the nuts on the rod going to the rear caliper. Lol. Answered my own question.
