Ok, sorry it took a few weeks to get all of the details sorted out, but I wanted to be sure that I put this together without stepping on any toes...
Mike with CTSMoto is the US distributor for Pazzo and will ultimately be supplying our purchase through Moto World Online. The guy at Moto World, Vlad, will be handling the front end (retail) for our purchase.
If you are interested in making a purchase at prices similar to those outlined in the other Pazzo thread, PM me or email me at dan@titancrew.com and I'll send you the price, the link and discount code. Vlad has already been very cool about allowing us to mix and match levers (long/short) so let's try and return the courtesy. Vlad's preference is to be paid by credit card though he will accept Paypal from people with CONFIRMED ADDRESSES ONLY.
Out of courtesy to Mike and Pazzo's minimum advertised pricing structure we will NOT be publicly posting the offered pricing. Any posting of the price we are getting, here or otherwise, could wind up shutting the offer down without notice so let's try and behave ourselves. biggrin.gif
It was nice to see some of you at Laguna Seca. Hope you stayed cool. Looks like you are working on another group buy for the VFRD.
Now that we are the U.S. Distributor for Pazzo Racing we need to step back and let our dealers run the Group Buys.
As you know I am always involved whenever possible. If it wasn't for all of the support from the VFRD we never would have made the parts for the 5th gen bikes. Thanks again for all the help.
Vlad at Motoworld online is an old pro at the group buys and he will treat you right. If you have any questions about the product at all don't hesitate to contact Vlad. Or you can cantact me at mike@ctsmoto.com
Everyone should be able to get in on this group buy. We now have levers for 1991 - 2006 VFR750 and VFR800 bikes. Be sure to let Vlad know the year.
Hello gang. I thank Dan for working out all details about this group buy with me and Mike (CTS). I will be happy to supply you guys with Pazzo levers at special group buy price. Lets just say the Group Buy will save you $10 off already low price and you will get a free shipping with that anywhere in the USA.
I also would like to thank a few people that have already placed their orders and point out the right way to do it.
If you are looking to buy a full set (both brake and clutch) please make sure to to follow the following steps:
select "Pazzo Levers Full Kit (Brake and Clutch)"". Do not select separate brake and then clutch because you will have to pay higher price and then I will have to keep adjusting prices on my end (takes extra time)
Enter a coupon "PazzoBuy" into a coupon field and click GO
Proceed to checkout
If paying by credit card please make sure you billing address on the card is the actuall billing address that you just entered
If paying by PayPal please make sure you address is CONFIRMED ADDRESS. If your address is not confirmed I will require Credit card payment and will refund you money from PayPal immediately
I sell a lot of things and if you do not see what you like please shoot me an email and I will let you know if I can get it and my price
Again thank you for allowing me to offer you this oportunity to earn your business
P.S. I just put them on my track bike (04 Triumph Daytona 600) and totally love them.
Thanks mike, I appreciate your messages about 1991-1997 being supported, but can you explain what might have changed between 1990 and 91 that would make the levers not work on my bike. AFAIK the 1990 and 1991 VFR's are "identical" except for color.

I don't know it may be a simple matter of actually fitting them. We only list the bikes we have actually test fit the levers on.
If the 90 VFR isn't listed than it was not test fit. I honestly don't know if anything is different on the 90 or not.

Sounds like you might have to send me a free pair to try on my 90 and then I can report back to this and other forums about my success! :-)
Ok got my levers today. Kudos to Vlad for the quick service and for straightening out my order.
Installation is a 5 minute affair .. remove screw, replace screw.
On the clutch side reuse the brass plug. Some other sites talk about re-using the bushing but on the set I had (6th gen) they were properly sized for the bolt.
Have my Pazzo's installed. Went out for a couple hours and they feel allot better then stock. Added a couple pics of them on my 97 to my website if anyone wants to look. http://www.bikepics.com/members/joefoefrombuffalo/
MotoWorld, Aug 21 2006, 09:26 PM I am just curious if there are more takers. Only very few took advantage of this deal and got these beautiful levers.
I am definitely about to buy a set but I don't know how to specify to have the breaklever short and clutch long... there is only option to have both either long or short...
Just wanted to say thanks for the work done on this group purchase. I ordered my shorties and got them very quickly. Just put them on today and they look / feel great. Will get them out on the street for the first time tomorrow.
A question to those who've opted for the short clutch: Does having the short lever increase the amount of effort you need to operate it? From a strict mechanical perspective, the answer should be, "duh..of course it does!" I'm interested, however, in real world experience (yours). I'm asking because I want to get either Pazzos or CRG levers, and I know I want a short brake lever, but I'm still on the fence regarding the clutch. I've found that in traffic, my clutch hand tends to get tired fairly quickly if I am holding the lever in for more than a few minutes. I don't want to make a bad situation worse.
MotoWorld, Aug 22 2006, 11:26 AMI am just curious if there are more takers. Only very few took advantage of this deal and got these beautiful levers.
I'm keen! However, I'm not sure what clutch and brake assemblies I'll be buying for, as I'm planning to fit inverted forks and associated hardware to my 1994 VFR750.
Can I pay now and buy later? goofy.gif
