Aftermarket brake/clutch lever for 07?
My hands are kinda small for the stock ones but I can't find any shorter brake/clutch lever on ebay, I'm having problem practicing the blip throttle and brake at the same time. Even the guys at motorcycle mall couldn't find anything that fit 2007 ninja 250r.
Any ideas? |

Yeah, if you want shorter levers you'll pretty much have to go with the adjustable lever mod. You can either use the OEM style levers or go aftermarket.
For aftermarket, I'll vouch for rideitmoto. Got a pair on mine. It is from China, but it's a lot better than the eBay ones. Comes with a warranty and free grips. Shipping was $17 and reasonably quick. It was a grand total of $89, I believe. The levers are kinda flimsy vertically, but it does not impede use in any way. Love 'em so far. Also, when you buy the perch, make sure it comes with the collar thing. Without it, the lever won't fit properly. It's the gold thingy on the OEM lever in this picture:

Yup! I'm the OP for that linked thread and I did this a month or so ago.
You'll need to buy the complete EX500 clutch perch in-order to get the adjustable lever. Should run you around $40-45. The brake side can take an adjustable lever as-is. |

I just want to confirm before I order Clutch & Brake lever the2wheels http://www.ebay.com/itm/the2wheels-A...=mtr#vi-ilComp Ex500 perch http://www.ebay.com/itm/2001-Kawasak...2acf85&vxp=mtr These are all the parts that I'll need? And the stock brake perch on '07 250r will fit with that brake lever? because it doesn't say 07 ninja 250r in the compatible vehicle, only 08-12. |

I would buy the EX500 levers, not the newgen 250 levers. I have no idea if there's a difference, but if you're buying the EX500 perch it only makes sense to get that lever. Either way - that's what I did and both levers fit.
But yes - all you would need is the EX500 clutch perch to add adjustable levers to both sides. |
