That thread about after market levers was about cheap crappy ones from China that where for sale on ebay.

Again i cant say anything about these levers as i have not come across them, But the Pazzo ones i have are ace and have a good brand name behind them.

will see soon enough though, we can load some pics up and everyone can see...the good or the bad.

For £75 to your door its not bad and if you look on Buster's web site it has a zoom in view... the finish work on them look good.

Anybody know what the advantage/disadvantage of the short or long levers is? I'm interested in these but don't know which to order.

Most riders use two fingers (or one) on the brakes, so you don't need a long lever. The shorties are also less likely to be damaged as badly as a longer lever in an off.

Some would say that shorties provide less leverage, but I know that I don't put my fingers right down the end of a lever anyway.

CRG shorties are very nice :D

That explains it clearly.
I have to say that I got used to the "weak" brakes on NC35 where I have to use a lot of force on the lever to slow the bike.
I also have a Daytona 675 (radial brakes) and have on two occasions mistakenly applied the same force (when jumping from one to the other bike on the track) and have put so much force on the front end that it's gone into a tank slapper and sent me down the road two times.
Now I have the solution.

in the latest superbike mag they have a little test of these and they get a good review

"they look remarkably like top-notch CRG items, but at a fraction of the cost. the roll-a-click trigger adjusters are simple and easy to use and fitting them was as easy as removing one screw and replacing. they are made from high-grade alloy and cost just £35 each, these are a bargain!"

well im convinced, hopefully father christmas can deliver me some come xmas day
