I found the info on the whitelne website. 16mm OD, 12.8mm ID, 42mm Length. I am gong to just drill the ID with a 12mm drill bit as it only needs to fit over an M12x1.25 thread.

The brake swap is finally done. I remade my pushrod from a high tensile bolt, and bled the system, checked for leaks, etc. I have only done a few laps of my local steets, but am thoroughly impressed with the braking peformance/feel so far.

So basically that lovely rod you made Make a longer pin to screw into your clevis And delete the captive washer You'll need to make your rod long enough to have about 20-40 thou clearance into the back of the cyl when assembled
