I had been thinking about getting new levers for my FZ6 for some time now. I had seen PAZZO's on other bikes before and always liked their look and feel. I found them on eBay for about $20USD cheaper than ordering directly from PAZZO.com. I descended to mix and match my lever sizes. I chose to go with a SHORT clutch lever and a LONG (regular) brake lever. I had heard good things about 2 finger shifting and I decided to leave the brake lever stock length...in case I ever need to grab a hand full of brake.

Shortie clutch lever

Regular (Long) brake lever

First impressions of using them - Fricken Sweet!! Nice and smooth pull. I had a concern of how 'heavy' the pull would be using the short clutch lever. Well, it is smoother and easier than the stock lever that is for darn sure!!!! Whoever said that I would love the short clutch lever was bang on the money!!

The 6 position adjustment lets you fine tune it to just the perfect setting and position for each individual. The 6 settings push the levers outward; towards the front of the bike. I initially thought this was not going to suit me as I have smallish hands (short fingers anyway) and usually want my levers closer to the bar. However, this was not an issue due to the shape and curve of the Pazzo levers. In fact, my clutch lever is now set on 3.

The brake lever (long) is also just as comfortable and smooth.

The radius and shape of the Pazzo levers are sooooo smooth and comfortable. It really is noticeable and very comfortable!

There is a slight bit of play in them, both at the pivot point/mounting plates and a bit on the levers themselves. I might try to shim up the pivot point/mounting plate with a washer, but it really isn't too bad.
