My new red levers (ones for china)
 
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
