Cue the debate over chinese copys vs originals vs genuine aftermarket ??

I have pazzo levers on mine, top quality
Re: Clutch and Brake lever? - Dudeofrude - 26-04-20
For what it's worth I have genuine Pazzos at the minute which are great, but I've also had the fake chinese copys (for about £15) in the past and they have been perfectly fine too ?

I now have Titax levers on mine, you can tell they are better quality but they don't do the job any differently and cost 3 times as much. So ......................

I've got ASV levers on mine, plenty of adjustment and very good quality, but they are expensive!

I wish I'd gone with them instead of the pazzos but I got a great deal on mine so couldnt be helped. I reckon I will buy ASV for my next bike

Had the cheap eBay ones for over 10 years now, no problems, but when changing the levers over, I found you need to reuse the original bushes..

Had Chinese copies for 4 years now, £15 against £150+ for Pazzos is a no brainer. A few years back a member of the Suzuki Owners Club, who was a metallurgist, carried out a strength comparison test between Pazzos, Chinese copies and OE. Although the Pazzos came out top, the OE came last.

Hello. As promised photo's of Pazzo Levers, for you to have a look at.
Cheers.

I have a pair of shorty Pazzo levers for sale. Very comfortable, particularly if you have smaller hands.
I also have Chinese adjustables on my R1. They look/feel slightly chunkier than the Pazzos but work fine and have lasted well. Polished alloy finish so no anodizing to fade.

I bought these a couple of months ago and find them very comfortable and great quality for the price.

I wanted the flip up ones after snapping a lever last year and I like that you can adjust long or short lever length as well as span adjustment.
I also like the polished finish and find the squarish cross section easier to grip too...
