Sir Real Ed Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 (edited) I decided to get some folding ARC levers. Looking at the website, BR-204 & CL-204 supposedly fit 1997-2019, BR-205 & CL-205 supposedly fit 2005-2019, and BR-206 & CL-206 supposedly fit 2015-2019. Three different part numbers all fit the 2019 model? That made my spider sense tingle as I suspect the website info was no good. So I called, and the guy who answered the phone said the 206 levers were the ones I needed for the 2019 bike. I ordered them and they don't fit. 8mm diameter pivot pin and a 6mm ID bearing in the lever. So I thought I would remove the bearings and use them like that, or drill them out for the stock bearings, but, for once I had enough sense to double check. The aluminum bearing holder part of the lever is about 3 mm too thick to fit in the Beta lever perches. I have not been able to get thru to ARC for about a week and a half, so I expect they may be in a end of year plant shut down. I checked the levers against a friend's 2016 EVO 300, and the levers are too thick to fit in those perches also. Is anyone else running the ARC levers in a new beta, and if so what are the part numbers? Thanks.

Googling AJP PR5 250 gets you this: https://www.motorcyclespecs.co.za/model/AJP/AJP PR5 Series 14.htm Edited January 7, 2019 by Sir Real Ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineaway Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 (edited) Myself, folding levers are a waste of money and feel like crap. I would just throw them in for spares. Proper lever setup is critical on a trials bike. We had a guy recently use these and he posted the link.
