I want to say Thank You So Much to our forum member
@Araitim who helped by machining my Bonamici Clutch Lever.
I all start with ordering a CUSTOM Laser Marking for the Bonamici latest Brake and Clutch Lever specifically for the RCS Corsa Corta Master Cylinder through the US official distributor.
However, somehow there is a miscommunication between Bonamici US official distributor and Bonamici factory, and they delivered the correct Brake Lever, but INCORRECT CLUTCH Lever.
Below is the picture of the INCORRECT Clutch Lever with the Correct Brake Lever. The INCORRECT Clutch Lever actually come with a complete adjuster set !!!
Below is the picture where I took out the INCORRECT Clutch Lever from the adjuster assembly and compare it with the correct Brake lever and you can see that they have different shape at / near the hinges:
So Bonamici US Distributor and Bonamici Factory decided to REPLACE the incorrect item with the Correct Clutch Lever.
However when Bonamici send me the CORRECT Clutch Lever, the LASER MARKING of the replacement Clutch Lever is NOW INCORRECT, because the word "DUCATI" on the Corrected lever is much smaller. This means, the Clutch Lever will have a different laser marking compare to the Brake Lever.
The whole process from the first time I order to Bonamici until the latest lever replacement maybe total 4 to 5 months, so I don't feel like going through another process of another lever replacement... beside I just don't like to complain anyway...
So, INSPIRED by the method of machining that our other Good Forum Member @Lucati performed on his lever a few months ago,
I decided to reach out to
@Araitim and ask for his expert opinion and help to machined the end part of the INCORRECT Lever but have the right size DUCATI lasermarked on it so it can fit the RCS Corsa Corta Clutch Cylinder, and below are the pictures of
@Araitim amazing machining skills
:
Araitim even added a bronze bushing (Picture below) which will make it smoother to operate than the original lever
Now, I just need to paint the bare aluminum area (from the machining) black and everything is PERFECT.
Well, wait, it's not perfect yet because Brembo haven't able to release the RCS16 Corsa Corta Clutch Cylinder yet due to COVID-19 and might be delayed again until June this year...
oh well, at least Thanks to
@Araitim , the lever is ready whenever Brembo is ready
