Default Levers and ABS

I'm looking at getting new levers but I have question marks that needs to be straightened out:
Which levers are compatible with ABS (and quick shift if that's a factor to consider)?
I really like the Synto levers, any thoughts on those?

I hope there is no mods/special levers required. Im expecting mine to arrive on Monday and was just going to pop them on. Lets hope its a 5min job.

Anyone else care to advise?

You don't need special levers, anything for the s1000 will work just fine, I have pazzo shorties and they work great.

I see, I thought that there might be an issue with either the ABS or perhaps the quick shift (can't remember which one).

Has anyone here tried the AC Schnitzer levers. Looks trick.

Plus Juan.

I took a pic of the stock clutch lever with the plastic bit on it, then matched it up to make sure it lined up correctly on the new lever. No probs with my AR levers.
