Title: Aftermarket (adjustable) levers for b400?
Post by: Squishy on January 11, 2012, 08:03:51 PM
Hi,

I'm looking for replacement levers (shorty) for my bandit 400, however as usual none of the lever manufacturers list the b400. Even on ebay I can only find 150+$ expensive ones.
I'm looking for something like this http://shop.the2wheels.com/CNC-Adjustable-Clutch-Brake-Levers-Set-for-Suzuki-Lever-Set-Suzuki.htm?productId=43

Does anyone have any experience with new levers? Do levers for other bikes fit on the b400? (e.g. the sv650 levers look very similar?)

Thanks

Running 1st gen SV ones on my bike: direct fit.

Make sure the clutch perch is the same, there were two distinct styles.

Got them from the same people. Those will work.

I'd stay away from the sliding ones myself, they seem a bit janky.
