For those of you that have gone the aftermarket lever route, I was curious to know where you purchased them from. From my searches, eBay seems to be the cheapest. Has anyone ordered them from eBay? If so, who did you order from and how long did it take you to get them? If you know of another distributer, please share.

Lastly, for those of you who chose the "shorty" levers, are they that much different than the stock? I know they are obviously shorter, but does that 1.25" make them better or worse? I know it is an opinion, but I wanted to hear what others thought. I am thinking about going the shorty route, I just dont want to regret not getting the full length ones in the long run. One of my main reasons is in the event of a tip over or small crash. I dont want to have to replace them.

Thanks!

If for some reason you are reading this and have a set of black Pazzo levers you are willing to sell, please PM me.

The NY ebay distributor is aces.

I run the Pazzo shorties on my Guzzi and CRG standards on the Firebolt. Can't go wrong with either, but customer service edge has to go to both Pazzo corporate and their American distributor (they're a Canadian concern).

I can't remember which distributor I used, but they are the cheapest on e-bay. I picked the standard for my clutch and the shorty for my brake. I can get all four fingers on the standard and 3 at the most on the shorty (but I only use 2). Great levers, top notch quality.

pazzo makes anyone who signs up as a dealer agree to not selling them for less then $179.99. pazzo them self sells them for $199.99 direct from them. so if you see them cheaper they wont be around for long before they can no longer sell them.

i ordered my self a set of black on black shorties, and have shipped a couple sets out to others. funny thing is the only style i have sold yet is black on black shorties, lol

I've seen them from $200.00 down to $160.00 on Ebay. I payed $169.99 last year for them at Gomoto.

$170.00 was about average last year, price go up $10.00?

Thanks for the responses so far. I went to the GoMoto site, but it just links you to other sites. Anyone else have that problem?

Is it unusual to do one lever standard length and one shorty, like Comeauzee stated?

Are the levers a huge improvement over the feel of stock ones? I am having trouble justifying spending that kind of money for something that small. Just want to be sure before I take the plunge.

Had Pazzo shorties on a couple of bikes (red w/blk adjusters on the XB12R) and they're awesome. In addition to looking extremely trick, they make it easier for a two-finger hold. The ball end of the grip snugs up perfectly to the edge of the finger and affords excellent leverage. Got em in a group buy for $150... they're well worth it even at $200.
