love the shorties. so much better than stock

 

The shortys look so cool. But do they provide enough leverage for starts on the clutch?:flex:

 

they provide plenty of leverage.

 

It depends what you prefer... If you only 2 or 3 finger both levers now you will love the shorties.

 

I actually have not seen them mounted yet. Do the shortys look bitchen on?

 

They are fine..... Used em on two racebikes. Love em

 

check out the PAZZO's also - same quality and a little cheaper. Get the shorties - if you can't pull a clutch or brake lever with 2 fingers you are a pussy and shouldn't be on anything larger than a moped.

 

How many fingers you use on the brake or clutch lever has nothing to do with strength. It's all personal preference. I use shorties with an STM slipper that's tighter than stock, and have brembo aftermarket components from calipers up to the master cylinder. Just because its possible to 1 finger brake it doesn't mean i'm going to. It's personal preference, I have more modulation control with 4 fingers than 1.

So your statement is pretty much ignorant :dunno :hammer:

 

CRG are better from my understanding. They have bearings where the Pazzos have only bushings. The levers have PLENTY of leverage too, so dont believe him. Ive seen one regular on the clutch and a shorty on the brake before on some bikes. Personally, I think thats ghey.

 

:stpd: ive used crg for years now and pazzo is a knock off of crg!!! crg is a much better made item!

 

Also if i were you i'd cough up the extra 50$ for the folding levers. Good to have if/when you wreck.

 

does CRG make them?

 

definetly get the shorties...youll have no problems:fact

 

Unless you have some seriously large hands, you shouldn't have a problem grabbing with 4 fingers on the shorty's. Ok, you might only be able to grab it with 3.5 fingers...half the pinky hanging off. I went with Pazzo's so that it's just not a long reach for the clutch; it's much easier to grab it now. You can't go wrong with either the Pazzo's or the CRG's and there is plenty of leverage with the shorty's

 

shorty's outsell the longs by a large margin when it comes to levers...at least with pazzo's it's about 29 to 1.

 

:drunk: Thanks guys for all the helpful replies. I am going with the Shorties, based on the consensus. Should get the bike back on Friday with all kinds of goodies installed...

 

Go with the CRG's shorty man. Much better looking and all you need is two fingers plus if you just so happen to low slide you'll be less likey to scratch or bend them.

 

my brother says

Tell your brother to put whatever the hell he wants to on HIS bike....

 

When I ordered the pazzo shorties, I was worried about them being to short. Once I rode with them I swore I would never go back to a long lever again.
