Default CRG Levers???

http://www.kyleusa.com/catalog/crg_b...51_4698678.htm





Put on my kyle clip ons last weekend and like the increased comfort / leverage. I’m wondering how these levers compare to stock? Are they longer to work better with the longer clip ons? Or are the short ones the way to go?



Thanks!

I have the shorties on both sides look great and work really well too. Well worth the money IMO.

Stel,

looks like you have the short on brake and long on clutch? I guess the short on the brake side helps for 2 finger braking and the long on the clutch helps for comfort? I use this bike to comute in NJ and can get stuck in traffic sometimes. Now I know the RC will never be a goldwing, but anything to help comfort helps...

I went with the long the clutch as it is more comfortable for me. I like to grip the very end of the cluth and the shorty just did not feel right. Shorty on the brake however works real nice...

I have the long ones on both bars and I LOVE them. They work so smooth and flawlessly and feel much better than stock. For commuting I would go with the long on the clutch and short on the brake. My RC is track only now so I wish I had shorties on both. If anyone wants to trade let me know. I've got the gold levers.

I have the shorties on both brake and clutch, took me about a day to get use to the clutch side being short but after that I don't even think about them, they just feel natural to me now. I got mine from Scott as he seems to always have the best price.
