Adjustable CNC levers for XT1200Z

[Combo]

I cant remember when I ordered these but it cant be more than 10 days ago.

I have had Pazzo's on my last few Ducatis and I love the way they feel.
I have very large hands and the shorty's have always suited my two finger clutch and brake feel.

It took a total of 5 minutes to install both then went for an 80km ride tonight and they look and feel exactly the same as the Pazzo's. GREAT!!!

Thats the ticket! 8)

I have always liked the shorts better for me also.

Those silver decals sure look good on your bike :exclaim:

How is the brake and clutch pull?

How is the brake and clutch pull?

The brake feels the same as it did with the other levers as I always brake two fingers where they rest (not at the end).
The clutch is the same..
If you brake and clutch at the end of the levers then dont go with these shorties... If you two finger operate with the inside of your hands against the grip ends then it males really no difference.
The main advantage with this style lever is the way they bend forward at the end allowing you to keep your thumb and two last fingers on the bars for hard excel.

Hmmm, I have never ridden a bike with short levers - but this sounds like it may be a good option!

Got mine in yesterday. Ordered and payed for the 24th of March, arrived the 6th of April. Average shipping time from Hong Kong to Belgium I guess

I was also surprised by the quality of the levers.

Installation is indeed very easy. They are definately closer to the grips then the OEM ones, very happy with this farkle! And you can't beat the money!

I do not want to be an alarmist here but, I noticed this vendor does not offer secure ordering (https) from their web site. ???
I once made the mistake of purchasing from an unsecured website and had my credit card hacked. (bank said some chap in Hong Kong bought a couple of lap dances before he was shutdown)

 

[TooTall]

Very true. However, even when it's a secure HTTPS site, you can never be sure...There is only one way to protect you when you buy things online, and that is to monitor your purchases. When fraudulent purchases are made, block the card immediately and report it to your bank.

And if you use Paypal, at least you have some sort of insurance...

Many credit card companies also offer "one time use" temp numbers for use when ordering on-line from an unknown source.

I got mine in today. Perfect :exclaim:

Good quality and looks like they wll work just fine. All I need now is the big XT to mount them on. :question:

 

[switchback]

Anyone get the folding levers?

 

[Turk]

I ordered pair of black shorties. i always break with 2 fingers but I wonder how is it going to feel doing the clutch the same way..

I was riding today with my new levers fitted and I seemed to be missing gear changes all over the place, kept dropping in to neutral between first and second and my changes were not smooth.

Maybe I was just having a bad day or could it be the levers!? ???

Bad day! Can't be the levers I purchased and on the bench along with all kinds of other stuff for the Big Blue XTZ.

Mortiis,
Can you tell if the stroke of the master cyclinder is less, when the lever is adjusted closest to the grip than other positions?
I'm thinking you might not be getting enough stroke of the clutch master cyclinder for smooth shifting.
I hope this is not the case as I know I'll need to use the closest setting for my short fingers.

 

[TooTall]

They take some getting used to. Especially the clutch lever, when you set it at it's closest the adjustement zone is very small.

Yeah this is what I have found, for the smallest setting on the clutch lever you have to have it pulled almost right up against the grip, I moved it out one notch and it's a little better, maybe I just need to get use to it or should I invest in Pazzo's, maybe there would be no difference?

Yeh, I recon there will be a big difference.... Pazzo's will come with a sticker that say's "Pazzo" >.
I believe these have been copied down to the last milling mark - And I have had a few sets of Pazzo's recently. No need to pay 6 times that rate anymore.

Tie some weights to your fingers and leave you hand hanging out of bed overnight.
