Different Style Valk Adjustable Brake and Clutch Levers
mello dude:
Recently I had noticed that my right index finger was getting sore on rides and got to the point that I need to do something different. I have looked for adjustable levers off and on, but now it was getting urgent. I have looked at wide levers such as Kuryakyn and the like, but didnt see any with adjustment. I never really like ebay, but decided to peruse and see if I could find any. Found these Chinese Branded and decided to take a gamble, really expecting to have to mod the thing to get it to work. The style is more like a sportbike type and well let try it. Plus the price is cheap! I like low cost! $38 bucks total.

Interesting that its a Chinese firm and uses a Chinese shipping company. I was working in my garage and a white SUV rolls up and an obvious chinese guy hands me a box.
Opened up and got busy. Found that the levers dont have a pivot bushing, but its on tolerance and a smooth fit on the OEM fastener...
Had to clean up some corrosion on the OEM pivot to get things to line up.
Grease the pivot area.
Installed on brake side.
Installed Cluch side.
That went together better than expected, simply, no mods needed. Been out for 150ish miles now and the brake side lever adjusted closer to the grip. Good! I like. Much more comfortable than stock. Index finger is not aching anymore. Still fooling with the clutch side, dont know where I want it. I guess a compliment is on the rides, I dont notice them...
Overall I'm good with it. Blingy? No. Functional? Yes. Rating it 7.8 out of 10. Some here wont like it, but it is personal taste.
Cheers all.

Thanks for sharing this info.
I just wish you may have asked before.....
I found these a few years ago as far as I remember a direct drop in solution, I just shimmed the joint with 0.1mm washers for a tad more snug feel.

Those are nice.. ;)
Jess from VA:
One of my bikes came with adjustable levers (chrome). I couldn't tell you the mfr.
I liked them but think the clutch could be adjusted so it wasn't fully disengaging (so I never used the closer settings). They finally wore out and OE went back on.
Those look much better mechanically than mine were.
