hello guys!!i am in the middle of an order for several goodies for my fighter!!!
i have made a decision for the sliders/plate holder/grips/clutch slave cylinder etc but i can seem to make up my mind on th levers!!!
first of all i am thinking that i shouldnt buy short levers like the asv ones cause the clutch will get too hard for every day use in traffic. (yes i ride the bike alot and i find traffic many times!)
i really like the crg folding levers that are not too long but not as short as the short levers but i have some thoughts about the aerodynamics.
the MW short folding levers have the same length as the crg, i dont like them as much but they have a hole at the tip which make the aerodynamics of the lever better...same goes for the rizoma ones...i like them more but then again...they are toooooo long!
help me out here what do you think? are the aerodynamics so important?
i read that extensive wind tunnel studies have shown that at speeds above 180 km per hour, the force of the air causes movement of the
lever, which puts the hydraulic circuit under pressure, limiting the bike’s performance...
here i have some pics so that you see the levers!!
