Levers
02/10/09 2:37 PM

Just looking for a little input....

I want to change the levers. I know there are several options, but unfortunately, the major manufacturers like CRG and Pazzo do not list the 14 on their web sites (at least I didn't see them). So... any opinions? Pazzo? CRG? Any other?

Pazzo!! Had em on a couple of other bikes and they were awesome feeling and looking levers. Pretty sure they make them for the 14. I thought about putting them on my 14, but have decided to try to keep this one pretty free of billet gee-gaws and such. But they're beautifully made.

Ray,

I've seen a couple of different sets of 'Pazzo style' levers around on the net
but HEAPS cheaper. Even saw some for less than US$40 per lever [can't remember where, maybe ebay].

Finding them is a google job I suppose.....but have a look at these -

I reckon the levers on the 14 are not bad at all, so no 'pazzo hunting' for me
at the mo' ...good luck with it.

ASV has some nice looking ones that I'll get eventually.
Color options are black, gold and silver and long vs shortys.

Check them out:

I definately do not like the ASV. Thank you for showing them tho. I appreciate it.

As for the ones Dave mentioned from EBay... I would have to see those first. The reason I tend to stay with main stream levers like Pazzo and CRG is, I have had both. They feel good and work very well.

Thank you all for your input.

I wonder if there are enough of us to get a group buy on levers.

I changed to Pazzo's for looks and for feel. I like to use 2 fingers on the brake and the clutch so I have shorty for both.

I looked at the motomummy ones as the shop is three min away . I just couldnt spend the bucks on them . They were nice but I didnt want to spend a couple of bills on levers. mine were hacked when I bought the bike . I bought fiber carbon ones off ebay for $30 (yes they were not real carbon) and they work great

I went with the Vortex's this time-the shortys.IMO better than the PAZZO's-had those on my zx12.They were good,but my Vortex's bring the lever right back far enough that I can use one finger to rest comfortably on em'.The length of the shorty is approximately 1/2 the length of the grip.Way better than stock.Came with the perch unit as well.$109.00 each.Very well made-no regrets

I got some Titax's from http://www.superbikesupply.com/index.php.
They list 'em for $150 a set, but have done deals for $125 a set through zx10r.net.(they are a sponsor)
I went with the stock length levers.

I have CRG shorties on my zx10 and my GF's 600. The Titax's cost less and are nearly identical.
I beleive the Pazzos are the same, too. However they offer way more color options.

I put the shorty Pazzo's on mine, black with gold adjusters, and driven grips. I think it's a very nice combo.check motonummy.com, they were giving the grips free with the levers.



To much to list!

I have Pazzo on my bike.
I don't like them
They are at position 1, which is the closest to the grips and still feel way too far.
Anyone wants them?

What don't you like about the ASV levers, I was considering them. I like the idea of infinitely adjustable, not just 5-6 positions.
