Just uploading some pics of my new levers, these are the cheapo ones from china of eBay, they actually seem quite good, the adjusters are quite nifty too.

Colour is a very personal choice ;)

I bought some cheapo footpegs from China. They looked ace, but after about 2 weeks of getting a bit of foot abuse 1 of them snapped off just as I was transferring my weight onto it coming into a roundabout. To say I shat myself would have been an understatement

Think I'm having a problem with the clutch one, dunno if its me or it needs a little adjustment,but when o pull my clutch all the way to down shift, not all the times but often to notice, it drops to like 200rpm, yes 200, it never did it before and I don't know how it can be the levers, any ideas?

I must be colour blind. They look a bit pink to me :-)
Nice. Extendable ones right? As for your problem, maybe adjust the clutch cable to regain any "feel" lost due to the different lever. I found it necessary as the clutch was slipping during normal riding (over revving) but I don't know why revs would go so low (a clverer person will be along soon). I generally just slip the clutch & rarely have to pull it all the way in. And when going faster I mostly don't use the clutch except for downshifts. Try some clutchless upshifts to see if there's still a problem when shifting quickly.

I've had lots of levers for various bikes from china. I always use twowheels.com off eBay. I had them on my zx7r track bike and abused them for 3 yrs and had no probs whatsoever. Co spidering there about 15% to 20% of the price pazzo's it's a no brainer

Yeah extenders, its not the clutch itself it was the switch, I'll take some pictures tomorrow, if you look behind the lever there is a switch that the original lever presses in but the aftermarket levers don't have a notch to press the switch, I presumes it's some anti cut out switch and it also stops you from starting the bike with the clutch out, but I have made an aluminium block that goes on, you'll understand once I post pics
Cheers for looking

They are a little, I have another pair but they are too red haha, as you can see I'm going for red and black and these best suited
