Can you show pictures of what you're talking about here? I have taken mine apart before and discovered I didn't have an auto-adjustment...I was pretty sure the KKs didn't have one. I don't think the US ones are any different from the CAN ones either...?? |

Here is a Pic of it for you. Be very cautious of the wires under there! The black box is part of the SRS Air-Bag system. There was a KA owner who popped off his side curtain air-bags by messing with the wires. It would be best to disconnect the Neg (-) battery cable first, and wait 10 minutes before getting in there. Don't bend the tab too much or you could cause the brakes to bind continuously, or the spring to jump over it, or worse, break the tab and you will be getting a new lever.
