I bought a set of these levers just before Labor day last year...They are good! One thing I will say is that the fully shortened length is not quite as short as it should be, imho. But, that being said, they look good and work well.
I need to buy another brake lever from them to replace the one that got scraped up in my crash back in October.

When smaller companies first started making these, the guys on the 600rr board were complaining about the levers folding too easily. This was a few years ago though...FYI.

Well if only I had $300K lying around I would be a happy camper. Stupid mortgage payments.
Yellowbird is one of my top 5 favorite cars of all time. Such a beast, watch the old Nurburgring footage its amazing. No helmets, no cage, balls of steel and a heavy right foot.

Think this will ACTUALLY work?! cuz I'm hard up for a headlight for cheap!
Lol, I just answered in your other thread about this, too.
Yes, it will work. I say go for it...give us a review after you get it. I'm lucky I didn't destroy my headlight when I crashed, and I would have been sad shelling out more than about 50-60 for a stock 919 headlight. for $40 you cant go wrong.

Ordered these on Jan 21, and received them yesterday.
Installed them today, in fact. They are an excellent fit to the stock hardware, and the quality and finish is really quite good. They were shipped with the correct color combination that I ordered. The folding feature is acceptably strong, with a nice positive detent. VERY impressive for $66.00.

MF1VE, if you've got time could you get some pics with it on the bike?
No worries, MF1VE, I've got your back!
Here is a picture of them on my bike (post-crash). I'd had them installed for about 1.5 months at the time, and was entirely satisfied with them. They held up fine in the crash, unbroken...but with a little rash to add some character.

Shadow, are those the ASV or the knock-offs? Looks pretty good, I was thinking the part where the lever slides for length adjustments would look a little cheesy. But not bad at all

Those are the knock offs. That red doesn't look too bad!

I just got my pair of these in the mail, I was really skeptical about them but I ordered the titanium color with a red dial and I love how they look. Haven't ridden with them yet but I'm pretty surprised about the quality, very nice

Hmm... I remember someone popping in here with a bike like that. Color and scheme looks the same, but he didn't post much after the intro. Not 100% it's the same bike though
Aside from the seat cowl and rear hugger, I kinda like it... I have weird taste though
