Has anyone bought the billet shifter and brake lever from American Sport Bike, my stock shifter feels to small.
Was looking for an opinion on the billet stuff before i jump in because its not cheap. Thanks

Bought both for my wifes XB12R to replace the stock pieces that snapped off. The Quality is superb. She even "stressed" the shifter again and I was able to bend it right back with out it snapping. Yes they are pricey, but IMHO well worth it. They look damn cool too.

I've had a set for a few years now, good stuff.

Remember.... loktite is your friend with the pegs, don't ask how I know.

I made my own that ride on sealed roller bearings.

There are several other offerings now too, some from Knight Designs, and some from Precision Engineering, both sponsors as well.
