Hi,

I get a 06 625SMC, and I would like to change my clutch lever.

I find the ASV really nice, but I read it is not possible to fit it on our 625 SMC... Is it still correct ?

Otherwise, what lever could you advise me in the same style than the ASV ? (or even better! )

Thank you

Katoche

here's my 06 625 with an asv clutch lever "for magura" :thumbup:

injunman, is it a straightforward installation with the stock clutch master? i bought i used asv lever for magura clutch here a while back but haven't had the chance to install it yet. i've read that there are some issues with that lever for the smcs as opposed to the smrs.

anyway, nice work as usual. :thumbup:

the pivot bearing (bushing) needs to be reamed out a little and cleaned up and the original clutch adjuster (red knob) used, everything will work just fine, i siliconed all nuts because of the vibration and never had anything come loose or fall off, all systems a go!!!!! :thumbup:

Those bastards!!! I went to their office about six month ago and talked to one of their main product development guys, asking them if they made the brake and clutch levers for the SMC. Since then, not a word.

injunman,

Is is a big work for adjusting the ASV lever on the SMC ?

Could you please make a pictur with comment on what you did exactly ?

PS: Did you change also your decompression lever ? (mine is plastic black)

adj. of lever is pretty straight frwd, in this 1st pic the upper black pivot bolt bearing (bushing) was reamed with the next size drill bit so the factory bolt would fit. (the lever assy is an C5 model for magura)

the factory adj. bushing was added along with the red knob assy and spring

as you can see the pivot bolt nut was siliconed to keep it in place

yes the decomp lever was changed for the one made by boyesen, which is made from aluminum

Thank you injunman !
I have just ordered the C/5 and will follow your instructions

i installed the asv lever on saturday and it bolted right up. it took me 15 minutes and it works perfectly. i guess just be sure to get the one for the magura hydralic clutch and you should be fine.

I was planning to but didn't need to. everything just bolted up without a problem fortunately.
