Default Aftermarket Chinese levers? Pointy.

OMO,

I'm thinking of getting some of the cheap CNC Levers off ebay for my 2014 SV650S L2

Any experiences with these? iv read on other threads that colour wears off quite quick?

My biggest question is, does the clutch lever activate the clutch switch, the same way the OEM ones do?

Thanks in advance
Gizmo

I had a pair of Chinese CNC levers, the set I ordered activated the clutch switch correctly.

I ordered a full black set, apparently that was in January and I've had absolutely no colour fade on the one remaining lever I still have on the bike.

I purchased mine from this seller, these seem to be equivalent to what I purchased but the listing has changed since.

I've got a set, very pleased with them, I've had them a year and covered 20,000 miles with them in all weathers, the black lever is pretty much the same colour as when it arrived but the red adjuster is a little more pink than the red colour it started out at, however as I paid £17 for them I could buy a new set every year for 10 years and they would still be cheaper than Pazzos. They work just as they are supposed to.

Same as bibs, got my Chinazzo's from 2 wheels. Used them on the GSXR and now have a set on the blade. If you don't mind the 20+ days for delivery they are very good.
