      Well, I've shot these photos for you... adjustment is done where I marked it with red circle. In fact, the gear shift had a lot of play prior to the adjustment.

          Nope... I don't think they are made of iron. There is a lot of red mud on my bike from my last ride. The brake lever lost some coating when the bike fell two months back and when I tried to get the lever into shape using a pipe

            Cant see the images as TinyPic is banned at office. Will check it tonight and try the same on my bike. Thanks a lot!

              • jayan, you can adjust the gear lever yourself..

                Im not sure about Brake Lever, The Mechanic at Venkateshwara told that it cant be adjusted.

                And yes, Brake lever is pain, I am happy with gear lever after adjusting it.

                As showed by KP aka Hydbiker, We can do that for adjusting.

                • You can easily adjust the gear lever to whatever suits you best. The brake lever is mounted to the master cylinder directly and hence you will need to modify the brake lever to change the angle...you cant do any ready adjustment.

                      Guys, there is a chance of some adjustment for the brake lever too... pls check it on your bikes... I got it done in front of my eyes and there is a little difference too.
