I’ve done my first mod on the Beta. I thought it was time at 40 hours. The lever fits all 10mm Brembo clutch MCs.

This is what I got. BETA EASY PULL CLUTCH LEVER LIGHT (SIMILAR MIDWEST) 125 200 250 250 300 350 390 | eBay

This seller stocks loads of other protection stuff as well. This Brembo clutch lever is the same shape/fitment as the genuine one from the states, it’s just this is not from the states. I was sceptical that it’d work but I thought I’d give it a shot for the money. I fitted it easy enough. Just remove original lever, rod and spring. Bolt in the new one. Get bike hot and then adjust properly. My suggestion is you set the bite point first and then adjust the outer screw for the levers resting position- loctite bite grub screw and grease all pivots. I found it so easy to pull I slid the MC another 15mm down the bar. I can now use the tip of my forefinger for all clutch work. It’s a crazy light pull, like a mouse click instead of a clutch pull. I’m impressed so far. I need to fine tune it a touch more but if you want super light clutch (lighter than a 9mm piston) then get one ordered. This on a 4t would be really nice.

Whether I keep it on for races or not remains to be seen. I can’t see any negatives yet.

You can feel the engagement no problem once you get it dialled in. Setting when the bikes proper hot makes sense and do the plunger adjustment first. The engagement range (when slipping but still useful) is the same amount of lever movement as stock lever). The only snag I can see is the pull is so light that you can easily over do it. I’m thinking it’s only a question of getting used to it. I moved mine so just my forefinger tip is used to operate it hence my mouse click analogy.
