Re: A few quick questions - Matchless G3L

Alun Mills
For those of us who decide on repro levers, until I can find originals, the handlebar is 7/8" and not 1", but I see comments relating to pivot distance and have seen measurements of between 7/8' and 1'1/16" for this distance.

I assume too short and there is not enough pull for the clutch activation and obviously a big issue for braking.


Is there a specific pivot distance required for the G3L?

Cheers

Al
I just measured the pivot distance on both sets of my Bowden levers and they're all 1 1/16" centers. Ron

Thanks for that.

Re: A few quick questions - Matchless G3L

Good evening all,

I seem to have lost the little round brass fixing from my G3L break lever (the thing that secures the actual break cable nipple to the break lever - the pressed light weight type - identical to Ron’s in the photo in this thread)

I must of lost it when I removed the break cable last year ??😐

Can any kindly advise me where I may be able to purchase another?

I’m not sure what they are called and have searched all known part lists online.

Many thanks.

Kind regards

Mark
