Levers!

These seem like just the ticket! <-- Click

What would you do for a Yellow FireStorm? Gold? Black?

Is my Firestorm stock? Mmm, mostly.

EDIT: Oops. Just read the rules. I guess this section is for posting stuff that YOU have on eBay. Oh well.

I''d go with black, even the polished oem look isn't too exciting, and I think the gold might be too much of that color. Plus, black looks good on almost everything, levers being one. I'd like to see some pics after?

I agree. Black FTW. Gold would be appropriate if we had forks and rear shock to match.

before you buy those you may want to take a look at these.
they're exactly the same just a different ebay seller and a whole lot cheaper
just look at his other auctions for the other colors

whoa! that second link, i'm not sure those are for the VTR, says RC-51 VTR1000. remember the RC-51 was called an RVT1000 which a lot of ppl confuse with the VTR.

Also, the ad seems a bit scantily-clad, verbiage-wise. I'm a little more confident in the original seller's (at least somewhat overconfident) copy. LOL.

Well IMHO levers are not a place to go cheap. It is one of the main points of interaction with your bike. So while the cheap ones may look good and might even possibly work well, it's not something I would run.

If and when I change mine out I would go with a "Name Brand" company. As VTR parts are a bit hard to find, it would either be ASV or stock for me.

I have pazzo's on mine and they do make a world of difference. clutch pull is easy, they just feel right. the brake lever is awesome as well...

they are expensive, a little bit of bling, but the way I look at it is; how often do you touch them while you ride.
