Fitted the new adjustable levers from Hurtle Gear down in Bunbury.

Graeme was very helpful changing the order to black although they only were selling silver at the time... now stock all colours I believe.

The adjustment on the brake is excellent with the lever a lot closer to the bars so no longer a big reach... ( yeah .. I know... tiny hands..!!)

But there's not much adjustment on the clutch as when the distance is closer the clutch drags on changing..... not a problem on a run when it's a hot g/box but it has to be adjusted all the way out when she's cold and in traffic to find neutral. Still... at least I have the ability to adjust them now.. !!

Bit expensive at $250 for the two ..... but what else can I spend it on...

Hi FTL40

Link
Quality: good to excellent with a great finish. They do exactly what they're advertised for with about a 25mm reach adjustment, take 5 mins to swap out. ...and you can choose the lever and the adjusters colours.

They're from LSL which is a German manufacturer sold through varying 'bike outlets. Wanted to buy locally with the crash in the Aus $ exchange rate so didn't bother trying to source them from anywhere else.

Standard length Black lever is a 200-L40SW with 200+SI as the code for the silver adjuster.

cheers
