I'm planning on replacing the levers on my '06 Ss. It's a toss up between the sets from CRG and Pazzo.

Any thoughts from riders running either of these makes would be greatly appreciated.

Also, how difficult was it to replace your stock levers? Are there any secrets or hidden little problems that arose in the installation?

Thanks Bo Sox

I just installed a set of Pazzos, but haven't ridden yet. They sure are purty though. And @$50 cheaper set. I think you'll do good with either one though.

I own a pair of the Pazzo levers and as far as I can tell they are nearly identical look wise and I am sure quality wise.

I was at a toss up as to which to buy as well. CRG levers are proven tested and used by a lot of riders. I opted to save some money and take a chance with the Pazzo levers though, and I am glad I did.

The Pazzo levers are top notch and I saved a few bucks. I bought mine through ebay auction and Motoworld (Vlad) is a stand up guy. Good service and I am very happy with my levers.

I bought the Gold levers /w Black selector in the short length and they look and work great, and match my Amber Windshield/Rims etc.

I'll try to post some pics soon.

Motoworld also sells them on eBay (search Pazzo).

I just bought a Zox Supercomp R helmet from Vlad, great helmet, great price, outstanding service!

I emailed Pazzo in December and they said in early 2007 they would have levers for buells.. Not on their website as of yet..

You all do know that 04 R6 front brake levers work with Buells and you can update the clutch perch to an R6 one for cheap to get the clutch lever to work.

Man , I love those red levers -but not sure if they will compliment the kick ash color scheme on my 9SX,
Black or silver levers feel too safe & bland - i m liking those red one fo sho.

Whats deal on the CRG quality vs the PAZZO quality ?

I think the quality is about equal, so it's just a matter of taste.
I put the CRG gold levers on mine, because I liked the way they matched the gold rims perfectly!

CRG should get on the case & do some more colors !

I think the finish on the PAZZO looks better ( from the photos - like that stripe shine finish ) & the price is pretty much the same here in the Uk.

if the quality is the same then surely PAZZO is the winner - as they have more range in colors .

I think CRG have got a reputation because they were first with this style but unless they get more colors I wouldn't be surprised if PAZZO starts getting more popular.

Any PAZZO users got any feedback ?

I just got done installing a set of Pazzo levers on my Firebolt. They look better than I thought they would and installed in about 15 min. start to finish. I bought the black shorties with red adjusters. They match the bike perfect!!

FYI I bought them from http://www.motoworldonline.com/

Thanks for all the input! Great response!

I'm thinking the red Pazzo's with black levers (or other way around) on my sunset orange Ss is the ticket. From what I've read here they appear to be an equally quality product to the CRG's. Impressive color combinations, for sure.

Thanks again,
Bo Sox - go Sox in '07

I have the CRG's on my XB12Ss and Pazzo's on my CBR600 track bike. I like them both!! I lean a little bit toward the Pazzo levers on my CBR for looks. Build quality is excellent on both!!

I just ordered the Pazzo black longs with red adjusters for my 07 bolt (black/cherry). Can't wait to install them. Now I need to find some matching bar ends.
