Long story story, I was riding with my SO and she tripped on dismount causing my '05 M620 to get dropped on the right side. Sucks but it's hard to get upset when she looks so sorry. [roll]
So I'm now trying to find a cheap replacement. I currently have the Ducati Performance adjustable lever as I've got small hands, but as I recall, it's something like $80 per lever. Given times are tough right now, are there better options? I'm looking at just fixed levers, but am not sure which Ducati levers are compatible with the M620.
Saw this one online and the price is right. Would this work? http://store.58cycle.com/product_p/brake%20lever%20750%20sport%2001%20al.htm (http://store.58cycle.com/product_p/brake%20lever%20750%20sport%2001%20al.htm)
Thanks in advance for all of your help!
it looks like it might, but knowing the diameter of the pivot would help.
Monster Parts sells the adjustable ones for $30 each. http://www.monsterparts.com/pc/ADJLEVER/Controls/ADJLEVER.html (http://www.monsterparts.com/pc/ADJLEVER/Controls/ADJLEVER.html)
620s have big pivot
did they snap or bend? cause my lever has a nice U bend on it from dropping it too.

It's bent. I considered trying to buy a butane torch and being it back, but figured it's more money and effort than getting another one.

This is perfect -- just what I need!
UPDATED: Bummer -- looks like they're out of stock. Does anybody know of any other sellers?

Call MonsterParts - Jeff is not always (never?) up to date on his website. He might have them after all. And if he doesn't he'll take one off his own or staff's bike - that's how he practices customer service [thumbsup]

Didn't Chris at california cycleworks use to sell (big hole) cheap adjustable levers?

go to page 2. both levers on that page work for the 620. That's where I ordered mine from.
