A bit pricey for Hong Kong copies and you will get hit by custom, £30 more and you could have Titax. I bought these ones http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/270921254352? ... 1497.l2649 which I thought where a bit pricey for Hong Kong copies but they are in the UK and have the adjustable lever length. If I was to buy new levers now I would go straight for the shorties as I'm used to them now and really like the feel.

It's rare i get taxed on anything from china to be honest, america yes every bloody time but of all the stuff I've had from china it was only the fairings that got held back and i think that's because it was a bloody massive box

Would ryther have ASV or Titax too tbh will have a browse mate ive got titax fork adjusters so would go nice

Re length i like a full hand for clutch but only ever use one or two fingers on the front brake so a shorty would be great think it may look odd having one long and one short? what you think?

I have had the same experience Seb, anything from China marked gift get's through with no problem but it's a lottery with anything from the States. My riser bars got through without a donation to HM C&E but the fork tools from Traxxion and the Factory Pro kit both incurred import duty. Bas*ards!

If you do get them, get "Brake" and "Clutch" engraved on the wrong ones to mess with people's heads.
It's your duty.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Just got similar for much cheaper (no engraving thou) for herselfs bike & them seem decent quality. Got China e-bay levers on my storm & they seem decent. Have ASVs on the CB, different league but no complaints for the cheapos yet
