[GDA]

Hi i just got my f3s today

and i had install the brp drag bar on it.


And i find out that the left switch box is touching the fuel tank cover while i turn fully left.

Is there any thing i can adjust?

Nope, something is wrong with the install or the components themselves are damaged or have the locating pin drilled incorrectly or something. I have the drag bar and zero interference issues.....

i like the f3. its fun.


i may try to reinstall the drag bar today and find out the reason.

Another problem.

Do you know how to adjust the brake pedal ?

Its 45 ° .can i adjust it to 30°?

i try to play with the rod near the brake master cyclinder.

this move did make the brake pedal lower.

but the brake light will stay on and the brake pedal got a lot of gap after that.

OK I will bite. What's a drag bar? Does it have another name? To me a Drag Bar is an extension out the

rear with small wheels to prevent a backward Cranial Perch! Prevent front tire/tires from rising up.

Welcome welcome....

Does seem to be a problem with the installation or the parts. If all was done correctly seems the only thing is to raise the base so the bars clear . They should clear. Some mounting systems have two different size plates they may be inverted just guessing don't know this system....:thumbup:

I tried the same thing, GDA, with the same result. I gave up moved the brake back to where it was. I tried a few other alternatives, but none were successful. My solution came from Lamonster's RIP floor boards, which change your foot position in relation to the pedal. They are just brilliant, and for me, well worth the price. I can't tell you if they are an option on the F3S, though.

Try slackening off the bolts that clamp the bar to the steering column and rotating the bar upwards. Assuming it's the same as the standard bars it has a fair bit of rotation in that clamp.

I adjusted my standard bars recently to avoid the 'hands in the mirrors' problem. After lowering the bars my left control was just catching the tank. I then adjusted it up a tiny bit so it didn't catch any more. You shouldn't need to take the whole thing off to stop it catching.

I think we know them as "Flat bars". Just a straight across no bend handlebars....Have often wondered myself why they call them drag bars cause most drag bikes don't use them....:dontknow:
