hi guys, got myself a Daytona 675 08 so i had to sign up here. it has stock clutch/ brake levers on ATM. but im a guy that likes to have two fingers on both sides. i was wondering if anyone has any recommendations or experience with short levers on a Daytona. post what you have below! much appreciated.
I had the Pazzo's on the last 675 and got on really well with them, and they looked very bling. I have midget girl hands so I find the shorties a lot easier to use. The Triumph shorties came with the present bike and I've had no cause to look at another set.
Same as 0S2 on the brake - Brembo RCS19 - I had the eBay shorty levers on previously and tbh I just didn't feel they had the stopping power due to less leverage... So I've gone back to a full size brake lever, be it a brembo. May just be a placebo effect, but when you outbrake yourself on track and have to pick your bike up out of the grass, then you do start questioning the wisdom of shorties (never had an issue with them on the road btw!). Clutch (no leverage issues!) I've put the standard back on, but may go back to my eBay shorty.
Evotech clutch and brake, got them as there was an offer for forum members a while back. Lovely quality finish. Not had any problems with leverage but then I'm not exactly at race pace on the track
Folding lever on the clutch side, IMHO it doesn't matter what sort really because it's not really subject to any real stresses. Fwiw I have a cheap Chinese ebay one that folds perfectly when required & was cheap as... The brake lever that came with it will NOT be going on my bike.! I use an OEM brake lever, as they give excellent feel & performance even if they don't look "trick". Also mine seem to have a fairly high fatality rate, so the ready availability of cheap unmarked replacements has served me well.
