Abstract
A device for adjusting the position of the brake lever of a motorcycle comprises a bracket () connectable to a handlebar (), a brake lever () extending in an essentially longitudinal direction (X-X), pivotally mounted on the bracket () and intended to be moved towards or away from a hydraulic actuator (), and an adjustment lever () pivotally mounted on the bracket () and functionally connected to the brake lever () in order to operate the hydraulic actuator () when the brake lever () moves towards the hydraulic actuator (). The device () possesses means () for adjusting the position of the brake lever () with respect to the adjustment lever (), these means comprising a pin () extending in the longitudinal direction (X-X) in a continuation of the brake lever (), which pin is engaged in such a way that it can be adjusted axially with respect to the brake lever () and is engaged in abutment with the adjustment lever (), so that a movement in the longitudinal direction (X-X) of the pin () with respect to the brake lever () corresponds to a change in the position of the brake lever () with respect to the adjustment lever ().
