    You can grind 1/4" off the bottom of the lever. That should give you the clearance without weakening the lever much.
    Great suggestiion, plenty of meat left to still function. Now you shaved off 20.015 lbs, that's a 3.5 hp gain.
    GS\'s since 1982: 55OMZ, 550ES, 750ET, (2) 1100ET\'s, 1100S, 1150ES. Current ride is an 83 Katana. Wifes bike is an 84 GS 1150ES

      Glad I could help. Sometimes it's the easy answers that are the more obscure.

      Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.;)

        I have done the same thing on brake pedals for more clearance as well as grinding some meat off the bottom of the footpeg to allow the pedal to travel a little further up.
        Then re-bleed the system to remove any and all excess pedal travel/sponginess.
