Adjustable Front Brake Lever

Is there any available that will fit, either Kawi OEM from another model or aftermarket??

I have long fingers and it's still a stretch

Yeah, too bad they don't offer a set for the 250r.

I wonder why they spend their money placing ads here when we can't even buy them

I have cycle control. But they are having issues with Customer sevice. ASV makes a lever as well. Pazzo is good as well. I have seen the levers from multiple companies in thailand personally and the quality is nowhere near that of the North American produced levers.

Currently using pazzos. Got them from motomummy for 179, plus free drink koozie and grips and free shipping. Funny part is that they are made in Canada and I am located in Canada but its cheaper to get it from the states.

After using the pazzo longs for a couple weeks, I don't think I would ever go back to oem. My reasons are the same as everyone else, the clutch lever, set to position 2, really makes it easier to pull that clutch in. I no longer get fatigue in my left hand from constantly pulling it in. Another plus is that they completely eliminate 9-10k RPM buzzing that was evident with the oem lever.

Yeah they are made in BC. It's funny cuz I'm from Canada too and I ordered mine from the US to my US PO box cheaper than ordering in Canada too.

Which ASV lever works for the 250, they don't have one listed for it?

That is weird because they had them posted a couple months ago. $125 a lever maybe the scraped them due to low sales. It is back to saying tba.

I found out what's going on with ASV. Ryan called them about a month ago asking if they had any plans for levers on the 250. Apparently their forger/CNC guy went out of business so they are extremely backordered and don't have plans on developing any new levers... yet, but they will in the future. They recently got a new guy and are working on catching up with the current orders. It sucks I like the products from ASV

I bit the bullet and went with the Pazzo's, long black with black adjusters, seeing that the Ninja is going to be around for quite a while (two teenage daughterz) and that Pazzo Racing is almost local to me, so I ordered the set off the Pazzo website for $199 USD . They also sent a few Pazzo trinkets with the order

Is that where the damn buzzing is coming from? I've been trying to find it since I got the bike.

Thanks

What is the cheapest place for Canadians to order from? I don't have a US PO box so I'll get hit with customs/duties no doubt... Why the heck would a Canadian company make it more expensive for Canadians to order?

Yes you can verify this by riding around at 9k then just slightly pull in the clutch so that you take in slack, and then the buzzing should just go away. At least it did for me.

Go with whomever has the cheapest shipping.

Bayside in BC has them: http://www.baysideperformance.ca/ind...ducts_id=11768

or you can get them direct from Pazzo

I'm in Ontario so shipping is more to here, so seeing as how I am only an hour from the border to NY I just ordered from motomummy and picked them up over the border.

It happens all the time. There have been products produced in the GTA (about 40 mins away from me) in Ontario that I have purchased in the states at Home Depot for HALF of what Home Depot in Canada sells them for. It's ridiculous.

Like he said, I'd stick with a Canadian reseller, just go with whoever has the cheapest shipping. Shipping across the border is rarely a pleasant experience especially with the insane "brokerage fees" that shippers like UPS impose on you (all in addition to the actual duty/tax you pay on the item's value)
