Clutch Lever Perch Removal.

Post by BradCA72 » Tue Jun 26, 2018 12:43 am

I just purchased a 1965 CA72 and I need to replace the clutch lever perch. Do I have to remove the horn button, high/low beam switch assembly? How do I get the perch past the wires that go to the switch. Thank you in advance.

Oh that's a good one...you can cut the old one off it's getting the new one on that's the problem.

Dismantle the switch - disconnect the wires in the headlamp and pull them through.

Then you can pull off the perch, re-thread the wires & reassemble.

Thank you, G-Man. I just found a new perch installed it using your advice.
