Matching Clutch Side's Pivot Perch CP
[How is it used?
I bought a used WR250R and the clutch lever was replaced with a ZETA Pivot perch (Brake Side was NORMALLever), so I bought a Brake lever to match the same design.
Was the one you received as per Image?
The design and Touch is Pushing and Parenthesis is good, and although it takes a little effort, the grip can be adjusted. To some extent." The finger lengths can be accommodated in the following ways
Was the installation difficult?
The installation process itself is easy, as it is simply a reverse of the procedure for removing the OEM lever.
Grease up each movable part firmly at the time of installation to ensure smooth and reliable operation.
How was your experience with it?
In my case, I had no complaints with the OEM Lever, but it is nice to have an adjustable grip.
The design is good and the texture is high. "Good goods" The sense that you are attaching a "+" is high (the price is actually high enough to be worth it...).
[Included Parts:were they on?
An illustrated Instruction Manual is included with the Pivot leverBody.
[Was there anything that disappointed you?
None
Basically, it is simple parts with a high quality feel, and it seems to be durable.

Point and hang of installation
As mentioned above, grease up the moving parts.
Then, you can install them neatly and faithfully to the basics.
[Availability and clarity of the Instruction Manual
A simplified Instruction Manual is included.
However, if you are able to remove the OEM lever, you should be able to start work with confidence, as the product is so easy to understand that you will not have any trouble installing it.
[Notes]
Tighten Torque properly.
[ITEMS TO BUY TOGETHER
In my case, as I mentioned above, the Clutch Side was replaced by the previous Owner, but if both were OEMLever, wouldn't it look better to have Both Sides in the same product at this time?
If you have a budget to spare, you can buy a hand guard of your favorite brand.
[Opinions and requests to Manufacturer
The price is a bit high for a LeverSingle Body, but I think it is worth the price, so please continue to sell the product as long as possible.

Fallen cannibals
I can say that this is a quintessential Zita product, all you have to do is screw the Parts that push the Switch onto the LeverBody, and then replace it with the OEMLever.
The quality is excellent, and the Pivot construction provides peace of mind in case of a fall.

Recommended for Brake leverCustom for CT110 HUNTER CUB
Purchased to replace the brake lever on a 23 year old CT125CT110 HUNTER CUB as it does not have a grip adjustment mechanism.
I mainly use it for short touring, but it is comfortable to hold and easy to operate.
The quality of the construction is also high, and if you like the Titaniumium color color, we recommend it for custom use.

The quintessential ZETA!
We were not satisfied with the OEM's "flimsy" texture, so we chose ZETA's Off-road Lever.
It can obtain a texture that cannot be obtained in NORMAL.
Quantity:Pair (for Left and Right) I had some items, but I was longing for Titaniumium color, so I went for Quantity.:Pair (for Left and Right) Purchased separately.
The construction is also quintessential ZETA, very smooth to the touch with bare hands and comfortable to hold (too bad it's used with Gloves!).
As for the installation, we replaced the OEM hand guard with ZETA's AdventureHand guard at the same time because the OEM hand guard requires modification of the hand guard.
The only problem is that the mounting bolt at the base of the Brake SideLever was co-tightened with the OEM hand guard, leaving a gap for the hand guard. We have not been able to find the corresponding parts at this time, so this is an issue for the future.

Nice quality lever
Overall I am quite happy with this brake lever. It was hard to determine comparability but after some research I can confirm that these K-type levers are compatable with the Yamaha XT-250/ Serrow 250 control boxes. It is somewhat difficult to find 4-finger levers but these are a quality option. Unfortunately Zeta has very limited colors for their 4-finger levers so you are not able to customize your looks as much as their 3-finger options. There are other options out there for much less expensive control levers, I'm sure Zeta has nicer machining and finish than the less expensive options, but I am not sure it is worth the price premium. Zeta does offer replacement levers in case you somehow damage them in a fall, so you do not have to replace the entire assembly which is a nice feature. Being a pivot lever they do offer that extra protection in case of a fall. Having a reach adjustment is also very welcom since I have smaller hands and the stock levers stuck out farther than I prefer. Installation was quite easy, just unbolt the old lever and bolt on the new one. The action is very smooth and the levers sit securely in the perch. Thankfully unlike by clutch lever this brake lever has no wiggle to it. If it does happen to have it you could try shimming the gap with some brass washers or I have also heard other people using a vise to squeeze the perch to eliminate the gap. Shipping from Japan to the West Coast of the United States was very quick. The levers can in a standard blister pack that protected them in transit and they came to me in perfect condition.
