petermac Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 (edited) Can someone post a picture of what the rear brake pedal should look like. I rode mine last weekend and was struggling to find the rear brake mid section. I think it may not be original Thanks Peter Edited May 11, 2012 by petermac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullylover Posted May 12, 2012 Report Share Posted May 12, 2012 Hello Petermac. I can remember on the first green Italjets they all broke the rear brake pedal. I think the kickstarts hit them and I think almost all of them ended up with home made ones on them. I see a green one and a green and white one regularly and they both have homemade ones on each of them. Bully Lover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psla Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 (edited) Some rear pedals: First from left: original (welded/repaired) Second from left: broken Third from left: Late original (just a little bit squezzed) Fourth from left: modified mounting (working as good as possible) The problem ist the original mounting/bearing and the less space to the pegs. I had to cut the bolt head of the right peg to get more travel for the pedal. Another modified pedal, which ist working quite well. some more pics > Italjet Rear Brake Pedal Regards, Peter Edited November 10, 2012 by psla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petermac Posted May 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 thanks for that, i was thinking of cutting the thickness of the pedal down so it doesnt catch the casing where kickstart is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petermac Posted May 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 made one last night, fitted and adjusted tonight, but too late to ride it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldilocks Posted June 23, 2012 Report Share Posted June 23, 2012 I think people used to convert them to left side brake / right side gear change which allows a rod rather than a cable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
