Quote:Levers were delivered the other day with nice blue adjusters to match my bike.  Very nicely made too.  My only observation is the pivot hole on the original ones has a bush fitted, these do not so the pivot action will be steel onto aluminium but what do you expect for the price they are..  Will just have to keep them well greased.

Looks good Bathy. I think they are good for the money.

The recently posted adjustable brake/clutch levers...are they a straight swap with the old levers, or do you need to change housing or fluids?

I changed mine last weekend on my 2003 900, and just a straight swap for the old levers. Took less than 15 min..

As long as you get the right ones, should be easy too. A nice cheap upgrade which looks good as well.

Does anyone have a link to levers that will fit a 3vd, all the posts have got me confused and seem to be mainly 9'ers, which I understand to be different.

You can't get the cheapo chinese levers for the standard 8fiddly brake AFAIK.  Titax used to do levers for the 8fiddly but they're expensive and you might struggle to find any.

That's what I was beginning to think Studley, thanks.

Is there a smaller brake lever from another model bike that may fit, or will it be a complete reservoir change?

i sent the seller a message about the Scorpion cans asking if they came with the mounting straps and he said he had a pair off a different set of cans he would send with them.Did you get the straps as well ?
