Worth checking

I walked past the bike today and noticed something about the clutch lever that didn't look right - when i checked it the chromed lever pivot bolt came out in my hand.

I'm not sure whether it's just vibrated loose or whether its missing a nut - the bolt does screw into the lower half of the lever but there's enough thread sticks through underneath that i wondered if i was missing a locking nut. If theres enough space i'll put a locking nut on anyway as when i think about it if the lever drags the pivot bolt when pulling in the lever it will gradually unwind the bolt completely - like mine seems to have done.

I did my 500ish mile trip round scotland on monday and then 'nipped' down to Donington and back last night - another 360 miles. if i'd lost the bolt on either of those trips it'd have been a large pain in the ass, so i thought i'd mention it so that you folks can check yours and maybe avoid a large pain in the ass....


Pete.

EDIT- doh, this was meant to be loose in the tech section not in mods, admin please feel free to move.
