Any suggestions as to where to buy such animals and what model R6/R1 levers fit the TRX?
I know, search is my friend, but I'm busy and don't have the time

Clutch and/or brake levers
What with the onset of age and sore fingers etc, I am thinking of getting some shorty style clutch and brake levers from the States, or anywhere actually.

Re: Clutch and/or brake levers
Hi Ekoja
Not sure what models fit as I had my chinese copies off a mate.
I think that I have found though that the shortie levers increase hand and finger fatigue. Shorter lever and all that physics stuff.
Cheers, Andy.

Re: Clutch and/or brake levers
I have bought 1999 r6 levers - brake fits fine but the clutch needs a spacer from memory. I am sure there is a 'how to' uide on here somewhere. I am sure someone will come along and either correct me or add some more valuable info. 
Understeer - when you hit the fence with the front of the bike.
Oversteer - when you hit the fence with the rear of the bike.
Horsepower - how fast you hit the fence.
Torque - how far you take the fence with you.

Re: Clutch and/or brake levers
IIRC, it's the 99 version that I bought, I think something like 99-01?
I've bought cheap shitty ones from china & they were acceptable, I'm currently running SDR levers from here http://www.xtremperformance.com/categor ... evers.html
You can get them on eBay too. Twice the price of the chinese cheapies, but streets ahead, heaps better fit & finish & they use bearing in the pivots.
I'd say they are on par with Pazzo's, very good for the money.
I'm using an R1 Radial M/C, but i wouldn't expect the quality to be any different for the R6 levers.
