2021 hawk dlx clutch lever
the old hawk went down- gal turned in front of me...and I got the ticket for passing on the left !!! But- I walked away. I am putting her back together, but cannot find a clutch lever- you guys have any ideas. I have searched amazon and nothing looks like it. looks like bars- rear brake lever- footpegs- and some pride... I think I have found everything but he clutch lever and the pride-- I don't think that's coming back even though it wasnt my fault !!
thanks for the help |

Ouch. Sorry to hear you got cut off, AND that you got a ticket. Drivers don't see us, and frankly cars are just dangerous to ride with. I stay away from cars as much as I can when I ride (mostly off road too!)
Good news it that your levers clamp onto a standard 7/8" handlebar. You can upgrade to nice adjustable compatible levers. You can set the distance of the lever from the handlebar on these. Lots of them available. Try Amazon and search for "adjustable levers HAWK" Not only will you get options for replacing both levers in matching color, but also just the clutch lever for under $10. Your clutch lever has a standard integrated end cylinder that can be easily removed from the broken lever, and replace the entire unit (remove the clamp, which may mean pulling off the handgrip). Your brake lever may be less easy to replace since it has a hydraulic master cylinder. But do a similar search and you will find alternatives. You can buy the entire master cylinder/lever/clamp for $15. Inject water between the the grip and the bar to easily remove it. when you reinstall, just dry everything and push it back on. No problem.

i was wondering about that, but it looks like the controls and the clutch safety switch are integral- and the clutch lever has a contact pad for the safety switch that i am not seeing on the aftermarket stuff.

You can probably bypass the clutch safety switch (cross the wires). Just remember to pull the clutch if it is in gear when you start it. You can even test this before you buy anything.
