Brake oops question
I am swapping handle bars and pulled the hand controls off - only after did I bother to read all the notes in the service manual that cautions me to put a cardboard spacer in the brake handle to avoid damage to the plunger.
1) To the experts - how great are the chances I damaged the plunger?
2) What's the best way to check it out before I reinstall everything? I don't want to find out it is leaking brake fluid when I find the paint removed from my gas tank.
Thanks

If you haven't reassembled it yet you have no worries. And there's no threat of a leak either way, it's just the brake light switch. (It works like a refrigerator light switch, popping out when you squeeze the brake lever) Just make sure you depress it as you put the halves back together.

Well it might be a good excuse to get some new chrome.
