Did you design this properly?

The clutch lever side is problematic. First of all, when the lever is installed, the wobble at the root of the lever is bothersome, and this directly leads to a lack of control moderation, resulting in a large drop in usability from the OEM.
The cause may be that the root of the clutch lever is thinner than the OEM clutch holder. This leads directly to the lack of moderation in the operation, and the user does not feel secure.
To solve the problem, we need to fill the gap with something like a Large size thin washer, which will give us more surface area for mounting.
Next, if the clutch wire is not properly positioned on the drum and the lever distance is moved, the pull width of the wire will also change, and the grip width and pull width span will not match. If the lever is moved too close to the drum, the pull width of the wire will also change, making it impossible to match the grip width and pull width span.
It is probably just a review of the installation dimensions for the base product created by the Manufacturer, and the actual vehicle matching of the prototype and functional checks were omitted in CostCut, which is a Chinese design concept.
In conclusion, the 8S version is simply dress-up parts that are concerned with material and surface treatment, and may not be satisfactory for users who seek operability and functionality.
On the other hand, the brake lever side has a slight wobble after installation, and the modulation feeling is not particularly good, but it can be said to be at an unsatisfactory level. The same feeling of operation as OEM can be expected with the Dress-up effect.
If you like the look of the product and are considering installing it, we recommend that you check with a user who rides the same type of car before purchasing. View detail

The omnipresent, fading, unfading monster

[How is it used?
Period:circa April 29, 2017 - Brake Side:late July 2021; Clutch Side:in continuous use as of September 10, 2023.
Distance:Clutch Side:approx. 68,197 km
Scenes:Large part is touring, spring, summer, fall and winter, by the sea and in the mountains. Including some circuits.

Was the one you received as per Image?
The product is as seen in the manufacturer's image and as seen in most of the large products in motorcycle supply stores.
Unlike OEM levers, there is a bolt that connects the Attachment and the lever, and unlike OEM levers, not everything is in one pc. as shown in the image.

Was the installation difficult?
All are Quantity for the car models.:It comes in a set and is easy to replace the OEM lever, although there is some work to be done to remove the ClutchWire and grease up the bolt.
In the case of partial damage, the actual store would basically be Quantity.:It is sold by the set, so it is high from the difficulty of obtaining it.
It seems that Small Spring is incorporated in Adjusteretc. even after procurement of parts, so careful assembly work with disassembling is necessary.

How was your experience with it?
The color of the Bar End was the same gold color as FANATIC's Bar End, but it still retains the gold/red color it had when it was first purchased, whereas the Bar End faded very quickly.
In the case of Lever, which is OEM and has no adjustment range, I thought Merit is the one that can obtain the dress-up and adjustment range with a high degree of confidence.
GlovesL Size Human Finger Quantity:It is wide enough to hang 2pc or 4pc.
It was installed on a CBR250RR (MC51), and when standing in a parking lot, it broke firmly at the notch and did not become undriveable.
When I installed it on my YZF-R6 (13S) and crashed on the circuit, it broke from the attachment (black colored part), and I was able to replace the entire lever and avoid being unable to drive.

[Included Parts:were they on?
I don't remember anymore, but I think they had everything they needed.

[Was there anything that disappointed you?
Although it is not a disappointment, it may be necessary to be careful not to be overconfident just because there is a notch, because in a special situation called a circuit, the notch is safe and it broke off from the root.

Compared to OEMs, there is more to gain, but the price advantage and avoidance of breakage due to lever bending will be lost. Still, it is easy to check the actual product at a real store and image it installed on one's own car, and there are many people who have installed the product, so there seems to be little concern about supply disruptions.
It is a part that is always visible when you ride a motorcycle, and it is a product with a high degree of satisfaction in terms of both appearance and function. View detail

Confidence in the Large Thing

Silver with Gold parts.
The installation itself was very easy. However, since the Wire has a Nut in the intricate area, a Socket wrench with extension would have made it easier and more Beauty.
The color of choice might be black for a sense of unity, or red for a hint of color, but we chose silver. Silver, however, was chosen because it is a color that does not stand out from the front view and does not look cheap or conspicuous. Gold was used for the parts to eliminate the monotonous thinness of the color.
At the same time, when the Bar end mirror was attached, the Lever hit the Mirror Bracket. Therefore, the handlebar fixing part at the base of the lever was shifted inward to eliminate the hit.
I like to ride with my upper body up, not leaning forward, so I set the lever at the horizontal position from the top of the Handlebar.
I was torn between Short and Long, but decided I liked the look of Long better.
Brake levers are very important parts, so I am glad that we chose this reliable product. View detail
