Not trying to promote non us products.

Just got these and put them on. Fit was exact.

$34 free shipping from the2wheels on ebay

Have buell listed as an application.

Short or long (mine are shorty) and like 7 colors

I would say alot more solid than stock. Just sharper cuts and more sturdy then the cast levers.
 
I bought the same general casting, but got the extendable ones. MUCH better than stock but means of sturdiness, and much more comfortable.
 
I might pick some of these up after i pick up my crossroad 7 degree bars this weekend. Thanks for the info!
 
No problem man like I said not really wanting to promote chinese over u.s. but these things ended up being pretty nice so I just figured I'd let everyone know.

can someone tell me the benefits of aftermarket levers?

Better look ,shorter have less chance to brake on a drop and adjustable

Have 2wheels on my zx working great so far
 
I bought those for my firebolt. The brake lever just barely presses on the master cylinder plunger. So whenever the brakes heat up and begins to expand the brake fluid, the fluid can not expand back up into the reservoir. Whenever the pressure builds up enough, the front brake will lock up.

This happened to me on a 4 hour ride. Had to take the lever off and get a metal file and remove some metal from where the plunger touches it.

I've emailed the seller and am waiting to hear back from them.

I'd advise ANYONE using ANY levers other than stock to check this. Otherwise these lever look alright. Sure are cheap.

Thanks for the heads up!
 
ive had the ones on my CR for over a year and the ones on my XB9 for 6 months.

no issues at all.
 
I've read a bunch of stories about these locking up due to the issue above. Just make sure you check that out if you do go with them.

When it's my life on the line, some china knock off isn't going to cut it ;)
