So I got some short leavers for my R1, I went went to work, come home for a cup of Coffee the postman arrived and delivered them. I had half hour to kill so I fitted them. Went off to work, enjoying the fact I have a front brake that seemingly buried itself in the road. Pull the clutch in changing gears, I could feel it slowing down. I could't work it out.. Anyhow, I managed to stop, I could see the lever pushing the rubber bit in slightly, so I reckon it must have heated the hydraulic fluid forcing the front brake on. Got home after work, put the old leaver back on didn't have an issue. So I have spent most of the day, filing this lever so it doesn't push into the brake rubber too much. Could have been a lot worse.

I bought some for the Gixxer, RSV, and My R6 with no issues. I think they sent me the wrong ones. I have left feedback on eBay 'from hospital'
