Withdrawn Wanted, Rear hand brake for 2019 exr.

[Motophyllic]

If anyone has a rear hand brake for the 2019 EXR, I am looking to buy one.

Hi there. If you read this thread: The Alta Factory LHRB they talk about the part numbers needed to order the parts yourself.

This is the route I went (instead of factory LHRB). Spent under $200 in parts (ebayed a used clutch perch). Works PERFECTLY and would hate going back to an ICE bike!

We’re you able to find a switch for the brake light? There is a wire that sends the signal from the hand brake and I believe it’s different than the foot one. Thanks much!

The Clake adapter pressurizes the rear reservoir, and still retains the original foot brake sensor.

Thanks

It's just a factory KTM clutch master and even the brake line is available from KTM as a left hand brake conversion part. Not sure what part numbers they are but they might be listed in the link strider mentioned above.

I did some reorg today. This thread is now a stickie: DIY LHRB that retains the foot brake

We did some experimentation with the LHRB kit from Alta here at the dealership on a 2019 EXR. To retain the brake light switch, we tried plumbing the LHRB line into the same connection as the line from the foot brake pedal. The increased pressure from both levers blows the site glass out of the master cylinder. We learned this the hard way.

We've heard about this before. This is a leaky bottom seal on the insert. Either a bad seal or a bad installation.

Alta engineers had the same problem too. This is why they chickened out and decided to not offer a LHRB that retained the brake pedal. Rekluse and Clake have been offering their LHRB for years, so it is not a design problem. It is an execution problem.

Also, the two pressures never combine, it is either one or the other.

@Motophyllic -- Is this classified ad still current? If not, please change the prefix to "Bought" or "Withdrawn". Thanks.

I am sure the OX-Brake for the KTM will work. This is a add-on cable driven solution. I thought someone on the forum has already installed this on their bike.
