New-to-me 2019 FTR 1200 S has a ever so slightly bent rear brake lever - likely from a tip over incident. It works safely but my OCD will not let me leave it as is.

I have scoured the forum and have a couple of questions, several of which would be answered if someone can explain to me how to remove/replace the "Master Cylinder Pin" from the back of the brake lever??? This is keeping me from removing the whole rearset and trying to bend the lever straight(er) or just replacing the rear brake lever itself for a new one... I presume it pushes in/out but my limited wrenching experience is holding me back here:

Alternatively I've found an entire new right-side rearset from a 2022 FTR - are they interchangeable with the 2019? Can I just swap the whole rearset out? (once I figure out my master cylinder pin issue...)

I'm not interested in fancy adjustable aftermarket rearsets. I'd just like to fix my bent lever and get on my way...😉
 
No the 22+ ones are different. You would need to replace both sides. And it’s just a flip pin, push the top of it and pull it out
 
Correct, this is my 2019, so should just be able to do this with the original rearsets if the arm itself isn't bent and it's only the toe shifter part that needs replacing 👌
