I have really small hands and my stock f4i levers are tooo far away i mean i can reach them but riding in stop and go traffic sucks my hands cramp up.

How do you feel about the pazzo levers? would you recommend the short ones or the longer ones?? I heard that the short ones are angled when they are on and they are actually further away, but i haven't seen them on an f4i yet. If anyone has any suggestions that would be great let me know

I have CRG levers and love them.

On my ZX-10R I have the short levers and like them because I only use 2 fingers.

However on the ZX6R which Shortcake rides I have the standard length levers on and that seems to do the trick for her.

The angle really isn't different, just the length so if your a two finger user or a hand grabber. :)

Hope this helps

I would also say the CRG's - they're more adjustable than the pazzos.

Haven't heard one bad thing on Pazzo's for the price, plus more color options. As far as long levers vs. short, like other people said, it really depends on your riding style. Alot of people actually get a short brake, and a long clutch(leverage helps in high traffic riding). I would personally just get both long, for the looks(even on both sides), but more importantly, when that car cuts you off, it's good to know you can just grab a hold of em'!

We sell levers among other parts. I have small hands too and the Pazzo levers are amazing. I will never ride with stock levers again.

I can answer any questions you may have.
Pazzo levers and CRG levers are extremely similar.
CRG is NOT more adjustable than Pazzo.
They have the same exact ergonomics and function. In fact if I put the levers next to each other they have the same profile and are made out of the same grade aluminum. The only difference is that CRG has a roller bearing for the adjuster, which you do not need and you won't see, but some people do like the feel of it.

Pazzo levers are what I use for the street and currently for racing. I love them and they do come in some great colors. I also have CRG & ASV levers.
I choose Pazzo levers for my street sport bike, for several reasons which I can not publish online. Pm. me with all your specific questions.

The lowest you can buy them for anywhere is $160
If you find them cheaper they will not be warranteed by Pazzo and the seller is not legit.

I heard the only real diff is price. And like duncanmoto said you wont get pazzos below that set price. Pazzo has a lock on it with their distributors. I def want a set of shorties. I have a question tho, how do either do in minor crashes?? my cf stocker snapped off in a low speed lowside easy as pie. At $30 a set or less, thats no big deal. But @ $160+ a set lol.

Def shouldn't have as much an issue with shorties, as they are less likely to come in contact with the ground. :lol:

Yea, and the idea is not to go down, but I am a realist, I know if you push it enuff you will go down eventually :lol:

You may scuff the end of a shorty, but if you were to go down hard enough to snap a shorty, the broken lever would be the least of your worries. I had a 60mph. lowside at NHIS this past summer and my shorty lever had a scuff on the tip, but no bending or breaking whatsoever. The rest of the bike was a different story though and it ended that race weekend.

The longer Pazzos and CRG's have a relief point about 1 1/2 inches from the end of the lever. More times than not, the lever will break there instead of breaking at the master cylinder.

If you buy Pazzo levers from me I will repair or replace broken or damaged levers at dealer cost or less (up to 2 levers) for 1 year. No matter how you damage them. The deal is we send them back to the Pazzo factory and they salvage whatever parts they can and replace only the damaged pieces and we only bill you for the parts you need. It can be as low as $30 and the highest is $65 if it is totaled.

ASV levers have the best warantee. 5 year replacement for broken levers. They are the most expensive though. We pretty much only sell those to racers at $250 per pair. They're really cool looking and they have great adjusters.

So I do sell all 3 brands, but for the street, the best value overall is Pazzo. They also have the best color combos. FYI - We have allot of people mix lengths. For instance I have a long clutch and a short brake lever on my street bike right now. Great combination.
