All XBs use the same clutch lever (available in a few different colors), but the brake lever depends on which brake setup you have.

If you have the ZTL1 (6 piston) brake, it uses a specific lever, and then the ZTL2 (8 piston) bikes use a different but similar looking lever. All Ulysses models use the ZTL1 6 piston setup stock, so you can use the same levers as any other ZTL1 6 piston XB. The levers are available in a few different colors, but I believe all but the black and "silver" colors are discontinued.

Teeps - they can't be any worse than the CRGs I have on my Uly(09).
They came off an 04 Lightning.
Effin things rattle like they're on a Harley.
Oh wait...

I'm just glad I didn't have to pay for them too.
They were given to me because they rattled so bad.
They do look good and work well.

The knockoffs could be brought up to "par" by correctly sizing the pivot hole with a bronze bushing.

Now they just have a hole in the aluminum, that is too big...

I really like my cheep Chinese knockoffs they work great and don't rattle but they have only been on for a couple thousand miles. Could be I might rethink this someday.
