« on: 07 May 2015, 08:55:00 am »
Hi all..

They look good. The clutch starter cut-out switch working OK? Heard some reports of problems with some of the Chinese levers

Been thinking about short levers for a while but prices used to be silly but at that price you can't really go wrong

Agreed at this price it is worth a go, i think so anyway!
I have ordered another set for a mates 600 and asked the guy to put me a spare set of black adjusters in the package, which he has for a few pounds extra  :D

Nice looking ones. Can you check which of the 6 positions is the same distance as the original? I have long fingers so don't want the lever to come closer.

4/5 is around the same distance as the originals.

Can one of you take a picture of the levers on your bike to see how they look? Preferably a bit further out than the picture above? Are they designed for '2 finger' use?

Thinking about going for a pair of these myself...

Those are the short ones. They also do long (normal length) ones

Anyone got any of the longer ones or a link to them? I can only seem to find the folding adjustable length ones.

Are they easy peasy to fit?  What's involved?

Ten minutes with a (10mm perhaps?) spanner should see you done.  I think it's the definition of easy peasy haha!
I've heard some of these units use the brass bushing from inside the original lever inside the new lever, however mine didn't, just bolted straight up.
