Is it for a z900? Many ppl use cheap.levers without issue...

However for z900 v1...a mechanic of a pretty well known accesory shop told us that for z9... aftermarket levers can cause issues with front brake...for some reason u have to pull the lever really deep...especially on hard braking...n his comment is based on the china levers they sell...as hes had a number of ppl come back n complain ant the brakes.

But...theres also many z900s running on cheap aftermarket levers without issues.

Im still.on original.levers as like the feel of them better than aftermarkets

For.other.bikes, ive never heard any complaints on aftermarket levers...even my old z250 was fine with the cheap aftermarket levers.

Thanks. For my old z250. What brand aftermarket lever you use last time? Some western video complaints china made cheap lever cause front brake jam on its own on highway for unknown reason. The rider crash and fall.

just remember installing it need to turn it one round. and remember to hold the little button at the bottom, you don't want to break that or you will have a big headache.
