My New Project arrives after a 44 year wait!

That bit of rubber tube is well expensive for what it is. You need free play at the lever and the rubber stops the lever from vibrating evidently.
Also dealt with here :- http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=147275.0

On the early disc braked bikes they used this arrangement to adjust the free play

'Reassuringly expensive' as a mate of mine would say ;D

Good to finally know what it does though, thanks Ash👍

Hi I know this is a side track for your thread, but as you have Laverda in your handle you might be have seen this or know where to look.
This is a photo of my friends dad as he helped in the pit crew for this bike in the early 70s in Canada, my friend is trying to track down the bike/current owner.
If you have any suggestions for him it would be appreciated.
Laverda Dave:
Hi CB.
His best bet is to join the Laverda forum. It is truly international with some very helpful people who will 99% know where that bike is or at least it's history. Laverda race bikes are rare and expensive and they tend to move in specialist circles.
One guy who will probably know more than most is Jean-Louis Olive. He knows all there is to know about Laverda race bikes and their development. He has written some fantastic books on the subject and is on the forum. Another guy is Manix who used to race them and also on the site. The site is actually Canadian run I believe.
Good luck with tracing it, if it's still around it will be worth a few bob as we say in blighty 👍
Dave
