Levers for Triumph Street Triple 08

[TimothyS]

The knob on the clutch lever snapped off (a little too easily for my liking), so it's time to get new levers.

I'm looking at Pazzo and CRG, or any other brand highly recommmended.

Don't know whether I should be looking at standard or short, as I don't know anyone with upgraded levers.

So, any recommendations? Any place I can have a look (Auckland) at short levers?

Cheers,
Tim

ASV levers are available in NZ now.
Crown Kiwi Enterprises imports them. They should be available at most motorcycle shops

I put Pazzo shorties on my Speed Four just before Xmas. They look good and are easy to adjust on the fly. Work really well for me as I have short fingers.

I bought mine from these guys: http://bikegearwarehouse.com.au/
Great service and very easy to deal with.

Shorties are good if you're used to them i.e. mountain biking etc but sometimes having them still doesn't mean you can use the levers with only 2 fingers and keep the others on the grip. I like my shorties and they'll work great on the new bike since my little finger is stuffed up.

Some people don't like the look of them since they're pretty short.

Brand: there's also vortex (similar to CRG) but they're all pretty much the same really apart from ASV (top of the line in my opinion).

If you want purdy colours pazzo is the only way to go. You can customize the hell out of the colours.

I agree, ASV are nice levers - I had them on my last bike and have just fitted a new set to my current bike.
Pazzo & ASV are both good and Pazzo's customisable feature is cool if you're into that, though I think ASV's finish is a little better. Ultimately though ASV's warranty (3 or 5 years depending on which series of lever) swings the balance IMO. You break the lever or anything goes wrong in that time and they'll fix it or replace it for free.
Sorry for the crap cellphone pic, there are black, blue and gold available in these (ASV F3's) also.

Funny you mention ASV, that's what I've ordered, black, short, red clicker.
$335NZ landed.

That Crown Kiwi distributor has them listed for $249 each, and no gst on imports under $400.

So if you know of a place that is doing them much cheaper than that, do share brother!

Edit: I'm getting C5s, they are considerably more expensive than F3s - so there:blah:
