Are front brake levers easy enough to change?

[min200]

Yet another question!

My GSX600R has been dropped at some point by the previous owner and the front brake lever is pretty bent and has some wiggle movement on it.

Now is it easy enough to change one of these and if so whats the best way to go about it?

Thanks again folks for your help in advance.

changing the front brake lever is very easy there is the pivot bolt goes through the lever near the master cylinder on the undersie there is normally a 10mm nut undo that and the bolt with either then push out or might need to be wound out if its got a bg slot in the headof bolt then wind it out pull lever out once bolt removed,slot new lever in refit bolt and nut job done

easier a lot of the time as not many front brakes are cable operated
