Looking at American Sportbike website at the brake and clutch levers......I was looking for opinions on the shorty levers..... I normally use only three fingers anyhow.....How much does the short lever increase required pressure?

I recently installed the CRG shorty levers. They're a good match to the Crossroads bars. No difference in effort required. I have small hands and had hoped for a little smaller reach. The brake lever is slightly closer on the closest setting, the Clutch slightly farther but not a problem. For street use, I see no performance advantage, though some people may. To me, it's a cosmetic upgrade. They maybe more crash worthy. I like them.

I love the shorties...I rarely use more than two fingers for the clutch and always only one finger for the brake. I find the leverage, feel, and feedback on these levers to be just about right for me.

A number of my friends have them on ricers and all of them love em'.
