brake and clutch levers

Has anyone found a replacement for brake and clutch levers that will fit a smaller hand?
Thanks

The dirt bike world has such things, with adjustable pivot points to make the pull easier. Not sure where to find one, off the top of my head, but they do exist, at least for the clutch.
If you dare - levers are usually made of very soft aluminum alloy so that if they get bent, they can be bent back without breakage. You may be able to re-bend the existing ones.

Thanks for the reply
I looked at bending them but would rather not in case it weakens the metal. I saw the motocross ones but not sure what models will fit.

My clutch lever was off a kiddy crosser I think KX80, not sure as it was a gift.
I cut the ball off my brake lever, cut 1/2" out of the lever blade and had the ball welded back on, much better for my small hands.

Thanks for the replys
I have checked all the name brand places and its only motovan that carries a pro wide lever but they still look like they would be out too far. I have looked at the moto cross and not sure how they would look, and I can't weld. looking for some thing bolt on.
I have put a email to Suzuki Canada to see what they can come up with
Thanks again

I recieved a response from Suzuki Canada and they will not help they sent me back to the dealer. I think I will find a machine shop and ask them to make me a set to my order.
Thanks to everyone who responded
