Re: Adjustable clutch lever.
Apparently a GPZ500 one with span adjuster can be made to fit properly. I think they only came in black, but I might be wrong.

Re: Adjustable clutch lever.
Mine is a poncy Pazzo one, it's GSXR fitment really but cable clutches are easily interchanged. Or, you couild heat your existing one and give it a bend. Or crash

As you've got such lovely floppy ears you can have it for free. Where do you buy helmets that fit your unusual head shape by the way?

Re: Adjustable clutch lever.
To adjust the reach on mine, I just slackened the cable then put a bit of plastic pipe ( actually left over bit of scott-oiler supply tube) between the bit of the lever where the cable exits and the pivot point. Works a treat and cost about 1p.
DO NOT just slacken the cable as I did that initially so the lever just kind of naturally flopped closer to the bars but then the cable outer fell out of the housing and I had no clutch at all. The bit of pipe preventing the lever moving too far out stops the cable slipping out of the housing.
