Bent my clutch lever & would like to replace. It's $47 at the dealer, WOW. Any suitable substitutes out there at a more reasonable price? Bike is an 06 if that maters. Thanks, Murf (Message edited by murf2 on May 30, 2011) |

Thanks Rwven, but isn't there a stock Suzuki lever that is supposed to work? Murf |

Heat it up with propane torch to as hot as it can get and bend it back. I do it in a vice. Then paint it with a rattle can. That is what I do. |

Joe, I bought a set of those levers. Well worth it. I could not believe the quality for the price. Ron (Message edited by rwven on May 30, 2011) |

be aware because in Spain some of the clutch cables have snapped make sure it doesen't rub against any side |

Pontlee77, The levers I got were fine in the cable ferrule area. The fit and finish in that area are every bit as good, if not better than, stock. (Message edited by rwven on May 31, 2011) |

I am fairly certain that the levers off my SV650 will swap with my Uly. |

Anyone know the difference between 06 & 08 levers. They have a different part # but I don't know what changed. Ron has offered me an 08 lever but I don't know that it will work Thanks, Murf2 |

I won a clutch lever in a grab bag thing (don't know what year / part #). I recently took off the stock lever to lube the cable and noted a good bit of wear, so I put on the other one. They look the same when held together, but the new one fits differently. It sits a little closer to the grip (and therefore the engagement point is different) but it seems to work ok. It will take some getting used to. |
