Guy's and Gal's
Looking to upgrade my stock levers on my 2014 R-1. Anyone have some feedback on the best ones?

Thanks,
Dave B

CRG RC2, very nice feel and excellent looks with a wide adjustment range. Got a set from Riders Discount for about $165 2 yrs. ago.

Love my Pazzo levers. Never had any issues. Had them on multiple bikes.

With that being said, some friends have run the cheap ones from eBay and haven't had issues either, even one where the bike was laid down.

I bought some ebays for my buddy and theyre identical to the pazzos on my other buddies bike.

I run the CRG carbons and theyre a sick lever but they dont really have the adjustability like others. The pazzos at the closest setting are almost touching the grips but the CRG's even at the closest setting are still far back. I have small hands and theyre fine but i know people who like it close.

Same here. I have small to average size hands and they fit me great. Been using them on my R6 for 9 years. Put through years of aggressive use with no problems.

I have a set of knock-off pazzo shortys on my 07, no problems whatsoever, and they were fairly cheap.

 

[LeanStar]

ASV shorty are my personal favorite.

Shorty's from eBay. I think they were $25 shipped from CA (Chinese knock offs). Had them installed for over a year with no issues.

Got the FP Racing few months ago, and I'm very happy with them.
Were the only ones with three different lengths and with lever and adjuster colors customizable (got red lever and titanium adjuster)

Get the knock-off Pazzos from ebay, I've had two sets and zero complaints. They had some vertical play on my F4i, but they are very firm vertically on my R1. They're adjustable and generally awesome.


$20 shipped. Can't beat that.

My recommendation is Rizoma. Unfortunately, they are mega expensive, but the build quality and the attention to detail, fit and finish is second to none. Otherwise I can recommend Pazzo. Nowhere near the Rizomas in the above mentioned areas, but they do the job nicely. Had them on couple of previous bikes. If I have to mention one brand that you want to stay away from it is clearly Titax. Looks like a rough copy of Pazzo with a way too square and bulky "grip area" of the lever. I was thinking about them for one of my previous bikes, but cancelled that idea immediately after looking at and feeling one of their levers.

:thumbup Had Pazzos on three bikes, no issues, liked the look, color options and functioned perfectly. Now same with the FPs. I've had them on two bikes, no issues, like the look better, color options and they function perfectly. What's nice is the med length, shorter than the longs, longer than the shorts - just right. I think the aftermarket levers are largely a matter of personal preference, you'll get better adjustability over stock with all of them, go with what looks good to you.

I can't justify mega pricing for levers... but I know the quality is great. It's like the guys that spend ridiculous amounts of money for a gas cap. It's a freaking gas cap, people! Lol.

Performance mods I can throw cash at but levers are 50/50 for me.

I like my asv shorty levers

 

[smalltrack]

I will never buy or recommend anyone to ever buy ASV's.

Did ASV touch you in naughty ways? did they look at your NO NO place?

Hahaha! :lol

ASV shortys . got them on both my bikes. you can fine adjust these levers. they look clean. feels good when shifting and braking, and you can choose different colors for the adjusters. havnt had any issues.

 

[DarkHorse]

I'm buying another set of aftermarket levers soon. Not sure what brand though but I'll need a standard length clutch and shorty brake.

I have ASV right now. Both shorties.
