That looks so OG without the clutch lever. Badass for sure.

Why not do a foot clutch with that suicide shift?

I could have kept the switch, but I'm going to put an in-line switch about midway the length of the brake line. I cut off the little tab on the brake lever to slide the throttle housing flush with the master cylinder.

I bought the cheapy $12 throttle housing. Its not made for newer cables so I had to drill out the threaded side. The other side is fine. Once the cables are adjusted right, everything works fine.
