wow that looks odd having 1 long and 1 shorty.

I stalled when i first put them on but after a quick blast round town was sweet as a nut. feels like 2nd nature to me.

i feel safer with 4 fingers on the brake... :grin:
its my daily transport bike to work, & singapore drivers are lousy drivers. they cut into lanes without signal, which cause riders to e-brake so i took a regular brake lever for better control. :peace:

ah ok, ive always braked with 3 fingers, I felt that i get more braking power with this set but then again my old lever was bent and wobbly :P

Now... what other tarty bits i can buy for cheap? :P really want to make a QS lol :P

Getting a steering damner of a 07 675 for free of my mate so have to figure how to attach that.
