hey so ive been thinking about getting the pazzos and was wondering how big of a difference it was to get used to on the clutch side... i dont mind braking with 2-3 fingers but i think it would be wierd on the clutch side where im used to using all 4...? how different is the feel...?

I still use all 4, I think. It really took just a couple pulls to get used to it and now it's just like using the stock levers before. The difference being that the lever is now more with in reach for me and my small hand.

What are the plusses/minusses of the long vs short Pazzo levers?
I must say that the short Pazzo's look sharp.

I honestly don't know other than personal preference. I like the look of the shorty levers and that's why I got 'em. I have read that people like it when they are used to using two fingers to break or shift but that's just second hand.

My reasoning was to be different and I like the look, more sleek.

It's a question of leverage really. It would be just like putting a short shifter in your car. The action is shorter, but the effort needed to make the lever move is greater because your lever is short thus reducing torque produced when you pull on it.

Personally, I think they look amazing and really want a set for myself, but can't justify spending any money on stuff like this since I'm still a student.

Well, I bought a set of Pazzo shorty levers for my faster red 06 FZ6 today, black with red adjusters. I won't get a chance to install them for a few days, but when I do, I'll post pics and riding impressions. I'm a little anxious about getting the short ones...they look much better than the long ones and 100% better than the stock ones. I've always had issues with the stock clutch lever, so it'll be interesting to find out how the shorty Pazzo clutch lever works, as well as the shorty on the brake side.

Oh you will love it and they will look awesome. I almost went with the blue adjusters but I want the all black look other than the painted blue.

Where is a cheap place to buy these levers from? I think it's time to take the plunge and get some on my bike.

Get in on this Group Buy, it's a heckuva deal:-

Dec '07 - The PAZZO Lever Group buy is On!! - Pashnit Motorcycle Forum

....I tried and sent my order + money but those foreigners won't ship outside the US.
I then discovered that Pazzo's are not only Canadian, but are manufactured about 20 minutes away from where I live. Got my set cheaper than the Group Buy.
:
I can't wait till the Spring to try them out.

ebay has them for 159.99 also but no engraving, that would have been very cool.

Sweet deal! That's a much better price for the set than I've seen anywhere else. Thanks for the link.

I paid $135 back in August and it wasn't a special group buy price. Just about any combination too. I settled on black levers w/blue adjusters. FYI, brake levers are compatible with 03-05 R6/06-07 R6S.

Where might that have been? I haven't seen a price any lower than the one on this group by.
