Brand? Who sells? Price??

Company seems to be Oberon Performance from the UK. They list them on their website for 56 British Pounds each, which I think is around $85. Nice product, but$170 for a set of levers is a lot of coin for me.

Yes they are oberon levers, I had licks order them because they are a dealer. I think they ended up costing close to $200 as sugested above. They are a billet piece, and the color of the lever can be silver and the adjuster can be a number of different colors. These are the vented version with the blue adjusters. I guess it just matters if the comfort of having levers where you want them is worth the money, just like some $700 seats. To be honest I had some left over tax money and bought them because I thought they were trick, not because I have short fingers. Although I bet some women would dig these.

too pricey for me...to each his own...

Not cheap but them again if they make your ride more comfortable, why not? I've got "stubbies" and the clutch side get pretty uncomfortable after a while of stop 'n go.
I have a set of adjustables on each of my Ducatis and they're great. Let me start counting my pennies maybe I can afford a set ...8]

I gotta hear how these work. Doesn't it shorten the throw on the clutch?

I saw these on a Dyna today. They look really trick.

When I do my next bar swap, these are going on.

My Kawasaki Nomad had them stock. There was a 4 position adjusting cam that brought the lever closer to the grip. Had nothing to do with clutch or brake adjustments. They were real nice, shame the HD at a lot more $$$ couldn't put something like them on.

My clutches are cable actuated. If the distance between the lever and the grip is reduced, the cable travel is reduced. Therefore, the clutch release is reduced. I can see how the levers might work on a hydraulic clutch, as long as there's enough throw on the plunger.
Over two years and nobody has any real-world experience? Comparing your Nomad to a Harley is apples to oranges.
