Clutch Lever

[roger]

Hello All,

I would like to know if one of you guys might point me to a shaped clutch lever, closer to the grip with a shorter travel?
My tendons are shagged and the shorter stroke may help.

cheers

Hi Roger, Have you tried the adjustment on the standard lever?
If you wind it right in, there's hardly any gap between grip and lever.
Just a thought...
Chris.

Thanks Chris,

Yes it is wound in fully and still kills, I know there is a shaped lever which does fit but no idea what model.

cheers

Something like this if your pockets are deep

Yep, Pazzos are good and have a wide range of adjustment. You might be better with the 'long' style if you want a light pull (better leverage), or the 'short' style if you want shorter reach. I put a pair of long levers on my Tiger.

Thanks Lads,

I've never been one for custom flash, too tight you see.

I would like to find a lever from another type of bike which fits the firestorm.

cheers

Hi Roger, Don't know if you've solved your issue yet, but today i fitted a pair of Titax levers to my vtr and they are very nice, especially the clutch, because of the quality bearings used, the pull is now very light, and the range of adjustment is huge- pretty reasonably priced too!

They certainly look the dogs Chris How did you get on buying them seeing as they are from the Czech Republic Also did you have to pay import tax

Cheers,

Oooer, my virus scanner goes beserk when I try to view the pdf catalogue !!!

Avast by any chance

I'm getting the same Mike probably a false negative but I've not taken the chance yet like yourself

I imagine there is probably info on a closer outlet nearer to us than the Czech Republic in that catalogue.

Yep, I assume you're using the same Chris ? It's pretty good for a freebie, and was recommended by someone on here.

Yes, I am using the same Mike and have been for quite a while now. I used to be a big fan of AVG and had used it for years, but since it started the AVG 8 versions it was always having problems up dating so that's when I changed. As you say, I too think Avast is pretty good for a freebie

Me too....no complaints so far

Hi Chris, I ordered them through http://www.bikeit.co.uk, and they took 2 days to arrive.
I can't get over how light the clutch action is now!!
I think it must be to do with the bearings in the lever pivot- Highly recommended.

Which ones did you use? Short long etc ???

I bought long levers, clutch and brake in silver with black adjusters, they look nice too.
