Title: Adjustable levers ?
Post by zipidachimp on 07/16/22 at 00:08:17

Has anyone tried a set? I have a short reach and would like the levers closer to the bar.
Brands? Cost? Install?
Thanks, Cheers! 8-)

I've heard of them. In fact, iirc,my SIL has them on his Triumph. He got it used,IDK if they are original equipment.
Okay, Triumph won't fit though,,
I looked up

How to bend cast aluminum.

You might want to buy levers and try it. The propane torch can be had for under twenty bucks. Unless you want the fancy head with the self lighting button. Even they aren't exactly expensive. Check out YouTube. Unless someone can point you to what you really want. I'm not seeing it.

Still got the stock bars and levers?

The 1" selection is much less than what you can find for 7/8".

Most bikes with 1" bars are Harleys, and bigger and heavier seems to be more popular. Giant levers in chrome and what not. Shorties not so much.

I run 7/8" and there are a plethora of shorty levers available, but you may have to search a bit to find one that fits what you have. I try to stick to specific model parts so its easier, such as always using Honda perches so I have an easier time replacing levers.

Could be a winter project. Problem is the mirror/mcyl perches. Spoke to a Rizoma rep at Barber a while back and he said I'm out of luck. Too bad he didn't catch a clue.
