Got the shorties from Motomart, reasonable quality and fit straight in, dont have bushes on the pivots like the dearer ones though, slap lots of grease in.

Fitted mine this morning,took about 10 days to arrive,

Must admit they look quality!

Good weight & look the biz,got the shorty ones,done over 100miles today & loved the 2 finger braking,makes riding that wee bit easier,maybe its my imagination but it did feel more sporty to ride!

After fitting them I noticed the adjusting lever was upside down,oh well,might change them another time

Received some of these from 'thetwowheels' and very impressed. Quick and easy fit, great feel and seem sturdy. Not read all 28 pages but has anyone had trouble with fouling the console with the brake lever? running gsxr front end with clipons and full left lock isnt quite reached before the lever hits the cowling and applies the brake :S assuming that could be an MOT issue too...

i bought a set of orange shorty ones from thetwo wheels. Good for the price..final finish wasnt as smooth as I expected but not noticeable until up close. Thought I'd post for people with an orange fetish.

I need to photograph mine, they're on and they're lovley, very comfortable to use especially the clutch as I now have the correct cable slack and can still reach and grip it properly.

I went for the standard length, black with red adjuster and these have a ball bearing for the adjuster so can be easely adjusted on the move.

Slightly more expensive than some but I'm happy, the only negative comment was from a friend who has just bought titax for her bike, and that was because she feels ripped off.
