Do these:

Wasp's brake and clutch lever set

allow a closer grip for a smaller hand, in the replacement (long) length? Easy to install? Quality? Length of time for delivery to the US? Any other options out there?

Thanks!

There are some levers that look exactly like those and are much less money. They ship free from Hong Kong. I had a set and they were really nice.
I'm trying to find the seller but no joy so far.

Me too. I don't know which one is good for me (long or short) so I ordered one of each. Great price but how is quality?

Just ordered a set of shorties myself.

Had Pazzos on my VFR and the difference in feel vs OEM was surprising. I've read here and in the viffer circle that these are just as good...for 1/6 the price.

Thanks for the link!

I had a set a while back for the XT1200Z but put them on my Black FJR so now just ordered another set for the Tenere. $35 with shipping is great. I have a set of pazzo levers on the ST1300 that I put on about 5 years ago. I can't tell any difference, except I paid about $180 for that set :( :'(.

Hate to rain on the parade but I installed a set of longs from the2wheels and had to remove them. Well, the clutch lever would have worked, but it didn't fit quite right so it rattled. The brake lever was as tight as the clutch lever was loose, so it didn't release properly and my brake lights stayed on all the time. They look very good, the finish is pretty, but functionally they are terrible.

PM me if you want to try and see if YMMV - I'll sell 'em to you for a lot less than I paid. :)

To anybody who has ordered a set of the levers from the2Wheels, what is typical ship time? I got an email saying mine had been shipped a couple days after ordering, but two weeks have transpired since with nothing in the mailbox. Are they shipped from HK?

I think it took mine over two weeks, 17- 18 days and that was over a year ago when I ordered them.

I purchased them before I received my bike. It may be taking them longer now that many owners are ordering.

I will have to say they are worth it. I love mine and no problems at all with my short levers. ::008::
