These were fitted to my SV when I bought it on Saturday, they have done approximately 55 miles according to the previous owner. For some strange reason the camera makes the black part look dirty, but to be honest, they look like new. They are Chinese ones I think, but the quality looks really good. I don't like shorty levers & I don't like anodised parts, so have taken them off & fitted original levers back on the bike. Had a nosey on that well known Auction site & they sell for between £35 & £40, so, how does £20 + a fiver postage sound?

Does the clutch lever have the nib to actuate the clutch switch? Could you post a pic of the underside of it please

Just uploading it now, but I'm sure it does as I had to pull the clutch in to start the bike

Which nib are you talking about? My standard lever is exactly the same. Is yours for a pointy?

From 2010 IIRC onwards, they have an extra nib that engages the clutch switch differently to prior models.
