Looking to upgrade my levers, kind of liking the Ducati performance one curious if anyone has these or which one everyone is leaning toward. I've had shorty levers on my last bike but kind of liking the full length again. So lets see what everyone is goin with.
 
i have long fingers and can't really run shorter levers. love the look of em short, but just can't physically run em. also, like the feel of leverage a longer lever gives.
 
You are right, shorties are for some and not others. I love them!
CRG is my preffered brand but there are so many now its crazy. Even those Chinese knock offs on Ebay turned out to work great for a friend of mine. They even have engraving of choice on them too! lol
 
I prefer Pazzos on all makes of bike, I will be ordering for my White 1199 S. Will post pics if no one else has by then.


Sonic:rolleyes:
 
They're nice levers...

I like the ASV and CRG's and the color combos available. As Gunny said, there's a ton of good choices out there though. I had Pazzos on my S1K but the lever pull never felt as smooth as others for some reason, ymmv.
Cheers
 
+ 1 on CRG but I'm thinking of going with Brembo it comes with a better master cylinder than the OEM brembo on the Pani.

Interesting, this is the one Duc master cylinder that I felt like I was fine with. You looking for even easier lever pull?
 
+1 for CRG's. I have the CRG titanium coloured folding levers. They're a little shorter than stock, but they're not shorties. Superb quality and look great. I much prefer the roll-a-click adjusters to the DP screw style adjusters.

Yes - Just a little bit more easier pull with a single finger. I Like to brake with a single finger on the track while braking and bliping the throttle quickly while down shifting before a corner. For the street the Current Brembo/Ducati master cylinder on the Pani is beautiful doesn't grab harshbut provides enough brakes for a very smooth and powerful braking one of the best ever on a production bike but for me its a tad on the stiff side for me on the track. The brembo RCS brakes will allow you to adjust for power or precision. You get best of both worlds.

I have the DP levers too. Originally went with pazzos, but didn't like them as much. I keep thinking there is more play in the brake then there should be, but can't remember exactly what the stock one felt like. I like them a lot though.
 
Chinese MLabels for me. 40 $ for the set and they fit and feel perfectly.

Went for shortys myself, all the MX years have drilled me to run only one or two fingers on the levers and the long ones are too difficult to grab.
 
I went for Rizoma, the guy spent good couple of hours to install, then he had to tweak the clutch switch to make it work properly. There are 6 clicks , 2 of them can't be used otherwise the lever does not press the switch.

They look great but they are poorly engineered
 
I have these with remote, they just aren't rebadged DucaBike (Mine say Ducati). Absolutely love them!
