I've got small paws and find the stretch to the clutch and brake levers uncomfortable. I'm thinking of fitting a pair of adjustable levers to my Daytona 955i Gen 2 and would be grateful for some advice from those who've fitted them. Hand size / lever type: long or short / source / price / opinion, etc. Cheers
I changed the levers on both the Tiger and the Bonnie for short adjustable ones. I just got them off ebay and from memory they were around £30.00. Much better than stock even though both original levers were adjustable. Yes, I also chose the colour of the adjuster lever to match each bike!
Had the cheap chinky adjustable stubby levers on my last 3 bikes and found them very good especially given the price. I have fairly long fingers so the spans are set to 5 / 6 (out of 6) so plenty of adjustment to bring them closer to the grips.
I put Chinese length adjustable, reach adjustable and folding ones on my Thrux about a year and a half ago and they're fine, but I wouldn't recommend them as I was told they wouldn't last! I had a post about them but can't find it.
I finally bit the bullet and went for these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Long-Blue-Alloy-Adjustable-Brake-Clutch-Levers-Triumph-Daytona-955i-2006-/201787816783?fits=UKM_Make:Triumph|UKM_Modelaytona|Year:2006&hash=item2efb7dbb4f:g:zrMAAOSwImRYgH0z Bit more than I wanted to pay, but the seller has good feedback. I know they're for MY 2006 (I have MY 2002), but I messaged the seller and he said he'd send me MY 2002 levers. Didn't know there was a difference!
How are you getting on with new levers? Any problems adjusting clutch? Reason I ask - you may have seen my thread - is that my 2001 Daytona came with dogleg levers already fitted but I've had problems getting adjustment right - at the moment it's engaging very early.
on the original levers there is a small bush,probably brass , between the lever body and the pivot point. I think you may find it is missing , this is a common problem, the bush comes away with the original lever, which I assume you do not have
