I bought a similar set off these for my xtx,but they were less than half that @�14.20 delivered. Good job now being able to adjust the clutch lever angle.

Are the XTR and XTZ the same fitment? From what I had seen its suggested they are both different? So far I've some 10 sets saved in my eBay search, one is even adjustable length. Some sellers say they are for the XTR others don't seem to have as much of a clue.

Yes,contrary to the image these ones are solid at the pivot point,and I opted for the standard length ones,refered to as long type as I found other short ones only allowed 2 finger operation comfortably ,and with this cable clutch and single disc bike 3 finger operation is preferred.

No they are different and not interchangeable.

Shorties are fine and only the girls amongst us complain about clutch lever pressure which would be exacerbated by shortening the standard lever length. The above ebay guys sent the levers out pretty quickly. They fitted perfectly and there was no need to faff about by getting an FJR1300 lever for one side and a GSXR 600 lever for the other, as has been the case before. These guys send you the correct parts straight off.

Ace purchase for small money..
FYI - For those with an XTZ, you haven't had to faff about with GSX/FJR combinations for a good few years now since I helped get them sorted with retailing bespoke sets. The EZ-Moto levers are available for just under �20 delivered from here.

Well I've opted for these. http://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/251623350752
At that price it won't matter if they turn out to be crap.

well mine turned up today and fitted, they look good and feel nice, only complaint was that there was no spring hole for the return spring on the brake lever so had to drill my own hole. other than that I'm pleased.
