Rear Brake Rod
Does anyone have a rear brake rod off an 86 i could buy? or does someone have a complete bike that they could take some measurements for me to i can make one.

Rear Brake Rod
Just remember its a parts bike 
The rod is about 5.2mm thick. This setup is different to the '83-'85 rear brake which has the brake return spring on the lever pivot working on the brake lever where the '86 return spring works on the rod.
Cheers
