None that will fit directly.
You can look at Chinese levers for a ThunderCat. You might need to change the brake master cylinder for a T'Cat item, I believe the clutch perch is similar. Obviously I cant vouch for these so fit at your own risk

Lol..........

No span adjustable levers are available to fit the 1WG series if the original master cylinder and clutch perch is used.

You need to upgrade the master cylinder to a Fazer 600 ( cheapest option)/similar, if you wish to retain a intergrated reservoir or to a FZR 1000 RU/FZR 600R Foxeye/similar, if you require a remote reservoir....again cheapest options are indicated.

The clutch perch also requires swapping out.
The earlier R6 unit has span adjusters available as aftermarket parts but requires a small spacer adding at the clutch casing to take some free play in the outer cable up that the lever adjuster is unable to as it runs out of adjustment.

I run FZR 600R master cylinder and a Kawasaki ZZR600 Z clutch lever assy. on one of my 2tk bikes as I like the look and feel of the old style rounded edge levers as opposed to the CNC square edged aftermarket levers. The reservoir does obscure the temp gauge somewhat. I was fortunate when the clutch assy arrived that it had an extremely long adjuster screw and a spacer was not required.I have been unable to find another after much searching unfortunately.

My other 2tk has a Fazer brake master cylinder fitted, this was to match the YZF 750 hydraulic clutch master cylinder that is required on the YZF engine that is fitted.
