January 27, 200917 yr Has anybody managed to purchase or make just the little shim the fits inside the rear brake pedal? It's the little shim that sits between the actual pedal and the bolt. For some reason gas gas apparently don't sell this sepratly. So when it wears and the pedal starts to move all over the joint, you need to buy a new pedal and bolt.
January 27, 200917 yr Find a small engineering firm,take the pedal and the pivot bolt that screws into the frame to them,show them what you want.It's an easy job,should n't cost much
January 27, 200917 yr Get yourself to a bearing stockist with the pedal and pin,ask for either a "du" type bush or an oilite type,if i remember right, a DU should be a good choice
February 2, 200917 yr Use a refreshing beverage can of your choice and a sharp pair of scissors, get a piece of tube the same size as the bolt and sharpen the end. Use it as a punch to cut the inside hole, then cut the outer diameter with the scissors. You can make as many as you like to take up the slack
