Does anyone know of a set of levers that have a shorter reach.... my arthritis is often so bad I cannot grip and pull either lever without great difficulty...shorter reach would help... thx....

Kuryakin makes levers for a Valk that are a wide blade and chrome. When installing them, grease the pivot points with BelRay waterproof grease. It makes the pull much easier. Another option is to use GoldWing levers which are adjustable. There's a tab that needs to be cut off on one lever. Kury also makes chrome levers for GoldWings too.

I have the kury adjustables.I did have to trim the nub off the clutch side.The adjustments allows you to bring the lever a little closer to the grip and the width is more comfortable than the stockers.

Two or three outfits make these same levers (or used to).
