Default best leverage Brake & Clutch Levers ?

Hi Guys,
Seems that my bike is going to have new bars (due to the aforementioned clash of interest between my 12" and the Ontario Police ).

So maybe it is time to get new levers, I get tendentious in my left with the clutch sometimes, I have the assist kit installed (that small arm in the tranny side) but I was wondering, do you know of any specific levers that help you grab the clutch easier ? maybe improve the power of grabbing the front brakes ?.

I am aware of the Center-figural clutch solutions, I am just thinking of the best levers for now ?

Regards

A.k>

I am using Kuryakyn Boss Blades. It provides better leverage and more comfort for me because of its angle. More comfortable than HD stock levers. Better looking too.

My 2011 clutch is like butter compared to my 2002 clutch. Make sure it's lubed.

True..same for me. But...my 2002 hand belonged to a tough as nails 49 year old. Now, in 2011...that's a 58 year old fart.

I don't want to risk giving you any wrong advice.
Please look up www.Kuryakyn.com in the internet.
They have several Boss Blades models and styles-----some have an adjustable feature.
Part numbers 1080, 1036, 1038, 1057, etc., etc.

Default Pistol Grip Levers

I'd recommend pistol grips. Put a set on my Dyna and I wish I could put them on every bike I own.

I have edited both of your posts today containing a link to buy product in which I believe you may have ownership or work there. A first time poster with multiple posts with the same link is highly suspect as SPAM. If you continue to post links after this warning I will consider myself to be correct and you will loose your account.

Thx

It's OK... we usually don't give warning shots across the bow but when I saw your join date to be eight days after that website was updated and your IP was in the same area... well, ya know. Glad it was a misunderstanding. Enjoy your time on HDF. Let me know if you need anything.
