We'll I managed to essentially drop the bike today (technically it must count as a fall because I didn't quite manage to stay on my feet, due to moving at about 5mph at the time Very Happy

But I snapped the brake lever. FUCKKITBUGGERRITFUCKKIT (this was on the way home from the mechanics, where it's been for the past month).

Anyway how specific do the brake lever models have to be? Will ordering anything other than "KE2-77R MFA" screw me over?

Thanks for any help you lovely lovely people Wink

most brake levers "should" fit. where are you.. i've probably got a spare one. If not £4.60 to your door https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HONDA-CG125-CG-125-84-02-THICK-FRONT-BRAKE-LEVER-1306-/400218586653?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts&hash=item5d2ee2fe1d

Sorry dude. Thumbs Down Best bet is ebay or phone up local honda dealership. Cost me £8 for one once, but needed it that day!
