Guest Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 I think part of the reason the bike or away from me last night is the levers are very far away from the handles and my hands are tiny! Size S or XS in gloves..Anyone recommend a company to buy some adjustable levers for when I get the bike back?I'm thinking these guys:http://www.mc-motoparts.com/adjustable- ... g-triumph/Thanks.

Guest Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 Oh and I also need a new right side footpegs but going to buy 2, hopefully upgraded and custom.. Any ideas where?I'm thinking thesehttp://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/FOR-Triumph-TT- ... nav=SEARCH Quote
Mr Fro Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 For levers... a few people in here including Phil and me have Chinese eBay specials. Phil only uses his bike to potter to the shops but I use mine on the track so can vouch for their quality. I think mine were about £12 but they did take a week or two to arrive from Chinaland.If you removed the brand name, I'd be hard pushed to tell the difference between the cheapies and the high end jobbies.

Guest Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 Did you get them on eBay? I did see them and that's why I made this topic. I think for the extra £10 or so I may still go with the company I listed, no sure yet Quote
Mr Fro Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 Mine were from seller: etop_wholesale_uk. The service was really good. My ZXR is a crossover year and they sent the wrong fitment for the clutch. A couple of polite emails and a picture or two of the old lever and they sent me the correct one FOC.The link you provided uses the same pic as the eBay sellers so your extra tenner is more than likely their overhead for exactly the same product.

Guest Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 Hmm, think if I can find the seller you may have persuaded ne Quote
fq-craigus Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 Adjustable levers are the way forward. Whether you buy cheap chinese or expensive pazzo is personal preference and money situation. I have short asv adjustable and they claim to be unbreakable and i can vouch for that. Short or long is what ever is comfortable for you, some people use all fingers on their levers and some like myself use just two fingers Quote
Guest Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 I can't see to find the adjustable in custom colour in short form. Guess I'll stick with long, it's more the adjustment I am after. I am still using all fingers (...). Quote
Mr Fro Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 Long are pretty much what you have now. Stubby are just that - maybe an inch or so shorter. The range of adjustment is much greater on the aftermarket levers which is the really good thing about them.I've got massive hands so don't get along with the short ones as I only use my ring and little finger to brake (unless it's gone tits up).Shame you haven't got a zx6r as you could have had my stubbies (used once) for a pint.

Guest Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 (edited) Whilst I'm spending I'm gonna buy a chain & sprocket set, Any brand/website people can recommend?http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/DID-Silent-Chai ... nav=SEARCH Edited March 6, 2016 by Guest Quote
Guest Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 Also Mr Fro my mate has just bought a Zx6r If you wanna sell them I'll message him? Quote
Epic Earl Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 my bike came with Stubby's. dont like them really, Id prefer longer ones. Might have to look at getting another pair.I also found that if I adjust my levers too close to the handles. The Suzuki wont start as I need the clutch pulled in. In order for the bike to start.I guess the leaver hasn't been pulled enough when I've shortened it. Quote

RantMachine Posted March 8, 2016 Posted March 8, 2016 I'm planning to get a set for my KLX in the near future, will be interesting to see how many knocks they can take Quote
