What is the throw of the actuating lever when the cylinder is bled and operational?
Need an approximate measurement so I can make a brake rod.
Also, when mounting a Chilton tank - nuts on the tank side or the seat side?
Thanks.

Jack. The throw of the lever will vary depending on how much clearance the brake pads have but on my Panther X the lever travels 3/4" from resting to fully depressed.

Thanks, guys.
I think I've got it.
I made a mock up of 1/4-28 allthread with the clevis' attached and used an old m.cyl I forgot I had.
