    there's nothing like a pretty homemade piece of carbon

    I once made a front brake lever for my R1. On a weekend trip with some friends, bike fell over, lever broke and my weekend was over. Nope, I made a brake lever, not a good one or a safe one, I might add. This was long ago and far away. No, I am not proud. I think I saved it and will post pics.

    Not exactly homemade, I just drilled holes and sanded my stock SV650 levers, but I think they're a lot cooler looking than factory... Not as pretty as the Pazzo levers that're on it now, but any reason to use power tools is a good one!
