Just picked up a 24 mc350. Does anyone know if the levers are the same as the brembo perch? I’m looking to buy some folding levers but all the part searches bring up levers for brembo. IMG 4958 0 
 

thanks

Flo levers make them. I currently am running the shorty brake and clutch on my 23 MC350. They work fine but I’ve noticed the Braktec clutch pull is considerably harder than my ARC/Brembo setup was on my Husky. We actually now have an early 23 mc250f with the Brembo and it’s smooth as butter compared to the 350. Ordered ARC CL-122 and BR-122 to see if the levers help the issue. If not I may switch out to a Brembo. Braktec gets a bad rep because it’s “not Brembo” but honestly the brakes are just as good. Clutch pull on the other hand…..

Thanks for the info. I currently still have my 22 gasgas 350 as well. While I don’t really notice a difference with the brakes or clutch yet, I am debating trying to swap at least the brembo clutch off the 22 onto the 24 if that is possible.

If it were me and I had a bike sitting there to swap it all I’d probably change everything just because it’d all be Brembo. (I’m OCD like that though 😂) The brakes would be easy because you wouldn’t even have to disconnect the lines. The clutch would be a bit worse to deal with the clutch bleeding. Side note, after the new one gets broken in update on your thoughts new gen vs old pls!

Ya I’m going to look into swapping it all over this winter. Was hoping with the clutch I could swap everything, the master and slave cylinder all complete with hoses lines still hooked up? Or do you loose all fluid when you take it off the engine case?  
also not sure if the brembo caliper will bolt right into the braktech mounts but I’ll keep ya posted haha.
So far the 24 only has 3 hours on it, but the engine power is vastly improved over the 22 for sure, and it feels way more stable at high speeds and on corner exits. The fork is harsher but still not broke in. the 22 was a great bike, I might just keep both honestly haha.

You do not lose fluid when you remove the slave from the cases.  If the slaves are the same you should be able to swap the entire system over.

That’d be convenient

Just put on the ARC CL122 and BR122 and they are good part numbers for the Braktec. Clutch pull is a bit better but still not as easy as the Brembo.

I added a post in that thread just now with my plans for dumping the BrakTec shit including some detailes on fitment.

TLDR:  eBay people have the Tusk levers in stock for some cheap gearbag spares (They were out of stock on RMATV):

I purchased this pair:
