Shorty Levers/ Standard Levers

Need thoughts on good manufacturers. I almost bought a set on amazon for 35.00 but my friend said you get what you pay for.... so any help would be appreciated.

I have had both and prefer the longer ones track use maybe the short ones but there is an advantage to the longer ones on the street .

Pazzo or CRG. Cheap ones are cheap.......I personally like shorty brake and long clutch, but that's an individual thing.

I think we had this discussion at one time....or at least one similar.

I prefer shorty levers and love my ASV levers I have on my '01

Since these are controlling vital parts, I shouldn't go on the cheap

I went Chinese cheap, and I couldn't be happier.  The hardware is of decent quality, and aluminum is aluminum.  I don't have any hesitation about using the levers.

I've never heard of any of the aftermarket levers break, whether it be the expensive or the cheap-o's. There really isn't a whole lot of severe stress going on there. I confess to buying the cheap-o's in the short version and really like them a lot.

I have Pazzos.  Long clutch and short brake.  Only real advantage is ease in positioning for 2 finger braking.  The adjusters are kinda nice too. Not worth the expense, but I got them cheap.

I was dubious when I bought my first set of Chinese rip-off levers for my triumph Street Triple. I was very pleasantly surprised when turns up and looked identical to my mates genuine Pazzo's, especially at 1/10th the price.

I've just ordered a set for the VFR, shorties again as I prefer them for lever feel.

I have had both Pazzo's and "cheap" Chinese short levers on various bikes over the years and now have £20 Chinese one's on my 4th Gen without any problems.
