Brake and clutch levers

Post by nakes999 » Sun Apr 11, 2010 9:21 pm

These look tasty... anyone have them on their bike? How well do they fit/work...?

I have them, but mine are the real Pazzo ones. They are copies. You can't tell the difference apart from a badge, but I'm a snob and wanted the badge haha.

They work well, I really like them, look much better and are adjustable which is great!

they are not the same as the pazzos or titax and do not work as well as either of those I have heard of the copies making the clutch trail and the brake slightly catching as they are not as good on the fitment.

Hmmmm, that's what I was wondering about... they look good but how well do they fit and work...

Anyone else have the same experience of these not working well?

hi , i put these on my track bike and they are pants. the clutch needs altering to fit correctly and the roll a clik adjusters have no spring so work loose and adjust themselves....... look like pazzo that i have on my road bike but the quality is not so good...... remember you get what you pay for!!!!

I've a set on my'Blade and they are 100%. No mis-fitting, no self adjusting, no sticking or coming loose. I refer to them as 'Spazzo's' but they are identical (well, a 95% replica) of the Pazzo's. Right down to the machine castings, spring mounted ball-bearings, the lot. I've used them in anger (read that as braking hard from over 170mph), I know guys who race cometitively with them (and I'm taking of bikes pushing between 180-200bhp) The only thing that they don't do, that the real Pazzo's do, is have the brass bush that the screw goes through to hold it in place. If anyone wants pics of the levers or them fitted I can do it tonight. Maybe the fact that my CBR has a hydraulic clutch might mean that it doesn't suffer from the clutch sticking issue, but the 08 CBR onards is all cabled and they don't have that problem.
