Thought I'd share some pictures of my new brake/clutch levers...





As you can see they're adonised black on the fronts, with the rear of the lever shaped like a blade. They're 6 way adjustable via a simple lever and just bolted straight on

NICE! Two questions -

1 - Where?
2 - How much?

Hi Paul
Yep they're the ones. Turned up in 2 days, went straight on. I liked the look of the Joker Machine ones, but these were a little different, and about half the price as they're UK based.

they look cool, is there much of an edge on the blade side? might not work out too well in an accident

There is quite an edge, but in the 2 bikes I wrote-off as a youngster the last thing I was worried about was what was on the bars!

I was just thinking it may cut off some fingers if something went wrong

they say for 06 and up, what did they change in 06? I thought they used the same levers through all the years?

My 06 has the adjustable clutch lever, and the earlier models don't, I know you cant use the adjustable lever on the earlier mounts, so guessing thats what the difference is.
