CRG?  Pazzo?  What are the advantages/disadvantages of eah?  Anyone have any thoughts? 

I was scouting, and it looks like I can get a new pair of Pazzo levers for the S2R for 180 or so.  I can't figure out what model CRG levers I would need and if they're being sold separately or as a pair and what that cost is.  Any help would be appreciated.

Take a look at the ASV levers, they feel and look great.  A few of the Dallas people have them and love em.  And they have an "unbreakable" design so in the even of a crash you can still ride it.  I'll be getting a set myself after a few other items get ordered

Since you're probably getting a set, is there somewhere you've found a good price?  I'll go check them out.

The Pazzos are basically a copy of the CRG design.  The main (perhaps only) difference is that the Pazzos have that brushed striated finish to them.  Gives it a bit more blingy look, if you're into that thing.

I think I paid around $170 for my CRG shorties on the Duc.  Pazzos usually go for about the same, if not a bit less.
Did you check out Motomummy's website for the Pazzos?  They have the model-specific levers for your bike.

They also have the "CNR" levers which are a duplicate of the CRG's  ???

The ASV levers seem to have more adjustment variation due to their design.  Also has a better warranty/guarantee.  But it comes with a higher price tag.

Just FYI, the unbreakable design is only guaranteed for 5 years.

Dom, they're pretty much all the same. Biggest difference may be in color combinations.

I've got CRG's on the Tuono....they're adjustable and feel pretty good to the fingers..I went  long clutch short brake black/black....way quality

...those ASV's are also sold @ CycleGear, but crap, I think they're something like $125 per...but they do have that cool radial "swing out of the way if dropped" feature great for dirt bikes, but at speed I can't see them holding up w/o breaking something...I picked one up and it felt heavy compared to the others...to each his/her own....
Always one to be underestimated

I have Pazzo levers, long clutch, short brake. My clutch lever survived with barely a scratch when I crashed though my handlebar was bent pretty bad.

I've used both Pazzo and CRG and like them both. I currently have Pazzo shortys on my 696  [thumbsup]

Looks like Rever Corsa has the CRGs for $169 which is pretty good. You'll have to pay tax, but there's no shipping.

CRG shorties for me!  Found mine used.  I second Rever Corsa [thumbsup]  They're first class...

Thanks, I can't seem to find them in their online store but I'll give them a call and see what they have for my S2R...
