Help With Lever Swap

[ArizonaKid]

I've bought a set of Wunderkind Custom levers for my 2021 R3GT and need help removing the OEM levers - specifically how do I remove the little hydraulic plunger piece from the base of the OEM lever. It appears to slip into a roundish cutout in the lever base, but is hiding behind the main part of the lever. I don't want to damage the rubber boot or anything else, so how does that come apart? Thanks in advance.

Okay, I didn't get any help here but I figured it out. The levers come off simply by removing the bottom nut and unscrewing the mounting pin. The OEM adjustable levers can be disassembled by driving out the mounting pin bushing and separating the two main pieces of the levers. The hydraulic plunger simply gets removed from it's pocket and transferred to the new levers. The trickiest part about reassembly is finessing the plunger back into the small rubber dust boot mounted to the face of the master cylinders. The new levers look and work great.

Glad you sorted it out. I've replaced the levers on my Bonny T-120 and my son-in-laws Speed Triple, in both cases the clutch uses a cable and the brake master cylinder piston is captured so it's basically unbolt and replace. Nothing fancy.

How about a pic of your work. I'm thinking of changing them out also.

I like the short two finger levers, better control.
