Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone has installed shorted brake and clutch hand levers?
Looking for some options ideally in black.

Also wondering if anyone has found a black foot brake lever, not at BMW oem pricing?
 
Have you considered the Roland Sand Design machined levers? I can take a side-by-side picture of the OEM lever and the RSD lever in order to get a feel for any size differences...

very few options out there, looking at the Roland Sand and Pro Brake options.
All good on the photos, just need them to be 20mm shorter as I've got a clash with my bar end mirrors at the moment

Already gone with this look on the clutch toe / heel shifter. The extrensions make a massive difference.
Hoping to find the whole assembly in black for the brake
 
Here is a pic of the RSD clutch lever fully depressed, is that enough room for your mirrors?

I'm interested in clutch and brake lever options, too. The OEM levers just feel bulky and over-sized for my hands/fingers. I came across the Wunderkind 2-Stripes Levers online. Look really good to me - sleek and stylish. Anyone have them installed? Any good opinions or reviews?

Star-Lord, Other than being more expensive than the Wunderkind 2Stripes by about $150 for the pair, can you speak to pros or cons on the RSD levers from your experience? Thanks.
 
I would like to know as well since I wanted the RSD ones.... but $$
 
Or just go the whole way with an Italian set that removes the huge ugly blocky reservoirs. Not sure if they have machined ones. I never looked IMG_2952.jpeg

Hello, GrBadv - What brand of levers and reservoirs are you showing in your photos? I'm looking for options for clutch and brake levers - specifically the RSD and Wunderkind brands. Thanks in advance..
 
I just got the Dakar Design yesterday myself. Very impressed with the quality and price. Fast shipping - no tax!

No experience installing these --looks simple, a couple of screws?

Anything I should know?

Did the levers come with installation instructions; If not, download the installation instructions from the Motorrad site for the RSD levers. I was able to install my levers using the directions fairly quickly..
