Just found this interesting offer on Aliexpres, but it's for X & R, and I'd need them for a 2009 Tenere / Z :

The levers on the X/R are different and not interchangeable with the Z.

Generally, I like them set in their longest position, but maybe I'll shorten them up when off road. Time will tell. I'm not sure they are quite as comfortable a shape as the non length adjustable ones. The lever blade is a bit squarer and fatter as a result of the design needed to make them length adjustable. The best bit I think is that these also have a hinge in, so that if you drop the bike, the lever should just hinge up in the air rather than get bent or snap. I've not tested that, and I also have hand guards, so hopefully a broken lever will never happen. But like I say, a great bit of bling for not a lot of money.
I ended up taking these off and going back to my OE levers. I think the non- folding version, probably in the short version is the one to go for.

The shorties are the ones that the vast majority go for - you just felt like being different didn't you! ;)

Just like to say the the last link on page 6 still works as I have just ordered some after losing my balance in the carpark at work dropping the bike down its right side & bending the original brake lever. Other than a slightly scuffed bar end that's all that got damaged. Cheers.

Hey Desert Racer, I call that the Tenere topple! , I am always amazed at how well it takes a tumble. I've dropped mine a few times and not a mark on it .....just a few bruises on me! . Steve

I bought a pair from ezmoto 2.5 years ago and have ridden 20000km since (total 24000km) and today my clutch cable gave up...

That is way to early as i'm used to ride over 50.000km before even thinking about replacing a clutch cable.

On closer inspection i can see the wear in the lower side of the new clutch handles base and that the edgers there are very sharp - A CNC machined edge...

I've sandet it at bit more round now and temporary fixed it with this bolt on:

Don't know the name in english

In the interests of balance, I've had 4 years out of my EZ-Moto levers and no hint of any wear, fraying or problems. Still on the original 2008 clutch cable.

That's probably the kiss of death now. Knowing my luck it'll break tomorrow! ;)

Hope not - just a word of warning to keep an eye on it. While searching the forum i also found stories about oem grips/cables fail in 10k and recommendation to not have the adjuster by the handle all the way in...

So when i get the replacement cable i'll keep the handle a bit out and then adjust it by the engine. I had it all the way in since i fitted the barkbuster with the logic that as the cable stretches i'll only need to adjust it outwards ....

I got mine off eBay for �18 delivered. Get all my small levers from china been using them for about 7 years never had a problem with any of them. And I brake late and hard.they Have been as good as the pazzo levers I used to buy at �130 a set. Thought I would give the cheap ones a go, 7 years later still using them.

Just some info on the post that was on the end of page 6 (Pleides) that talks about an upgrade offer is no longer available as this is the reply that I got from the seller.

"Dear buyer,
The post is from 2 years ago, sorry we no longer have this deal and Sunny has left the company a long time.
Regards,
Kelly"
