Looks quite nice. Not cheap, but if it does save your lever in an off, it's nearly paid for itself I guess.

Is it just me though, or does the lever blade look to be forged with a machined finish?

Not bad. Quite similar to the ASV 'Unbreakable' C5 Levers (but a fraction prettier) which have a 5 year unconditional warranty. Crash your bike, ride it off a cliff, do whatever you want with it; if the levers break they replace them without questions if within 5 years of purchase date.

Not cheap though... they sell for about $215 EACH ($430 for the 2) :o

I've got Lightech folding levers on my RS125 as well as the folding Sato shift/brake lever tips* and I can't say enough good things about them. They've survived a low-side (right side) and high-side (left side) :oops: and while they aren't the prettiest they still function superb and all my controls weren't the slightest bit damaged.
