Fitted some new Levers......

S1RR · 03-26-2011, 04:09 AM

Been looking to upgrade my levers, but i didn't want to pay stupid money for them.
So i took a gamble and bought these 'shorties' off Fleabay.
They are a massive improvement to the OEM levers and excellent quality and fit.

without being a dick they are very good looking and are an improvement but only while there not broke......they look really good me ol mate, the only reason i say this is a friend of mine put a set on his sv and the brake lever snapped clean off when he had a good squeeze ended up ramming some poor bloke on a bike up the arse at the lights............

Fair point, they might be made from cheap Chinese Alloy. But i've had a set of these on my other bike for about 12k miles so far, and they've been excellent.

They cost £51 GBP or $81 USD shipped. and they look and feel identical to levers that cost more than twice as much.

What does the clutch side look like, and does it operate the clutch switch properly?

The clutch side looks identical. i'll take a pic later if you want.

You have to remove the little plastic switch actuator from the original lever. and fit it the the new lever. A bit fiddly, but simple enough to do.
Works perfectly.
