Installed the Pazzo Levers. I have had these on almost all my previous bike. Look great and function flawlessly!

Does the clutch lever still work properly with the cruise control, and aren't those the long version? Just asking because I'm mulling over which brand of levers to get. I'm partial to FP Racing levers, but they don't offer them for the FZ-10.

They are the regular length. Clutch lever disengages the cruise as it's supposed to.

I debated between Pazzo and ASV, similar function and price. I've had great luck with ASV levers on my last two bikes so that is what I went with, American engineered and American made so it has Trump approval. Both Pazzo and ASV make great levers, fully guaranteed with large range of adjustment, and they look good and don't generally fade. The ASV, and it appears the Pazzo, has the appropriate tab on the lever that engages with the neutral kill switch so that you can't start the bike in gear if the clutch lever isn't pulled (this switch is also wired in so if the clutch lever is pulled when the cruise control is functioning it disengages the cruise control). Any reputable brand sold in the US will have this tab for pure liability purposes, not sure on the cheap Chinese knockoffs.
Be aware that Yamaha has slightly changed the design of the R1 and FZ-10 levers so you can't directly use clutch levers from previous Yamaha bikes. It is a subtle change but you will have clearance issues unless the lever has a slightly redesigned neutral kill switch tab. Pazzo seems to have made the change, so did ASV. Just something to keep in mind. |

Looks good! I think I'm going to get Lightech levers for my bike though.

Just picked up my brand new FZ10 this past week, I still have my 2008 FZ1 with the Pazzo levers, shorty brake and long clutch. I just swapped them out, the neutral kill switch is working. Haven't taken it for a ride yet to see how it functions. But with the side stand down and shifting it into gear the engine cuts off. I did have to adjust the lever free-play at the lever and down further on the adjustment on the cable to get the free-play within range specified by the manual. The friction/catch point of clutch seems to be a little closer, which I prefer. It was some getting used to the friction point being so far out with stock levers. let you know when I have a chance to get out for a extended ride. Really enjoyed my initial ride on the FZ10. Put a 180 miles on Saturday when I picked it up. Cant' wait for the break-in period to be over so I can really see what this bike has. Very impressive first ride! Looking forward to being a member of the board.

Thanks PJ and Corey for my Long Pazzos (and matching the best price!!)! I'll be putting them on this evening and going for a ride. Last set I had were Shorts, so I'm anxious to give these a shot.

Yes the FZ1 Pazzo lever does not work with cruise control. Purchased the Pazzo levers for FZ10 and all good! I have a pair of Pazzo for Gen II if anyone still has a Gen II bike..Best offer Titanium with silver adjusters, short brake and long clutch, perfect condition.

I just put on Pazzo shorty clutch and brake. The look, fit, and function perfectly. I went with Chinese cheapies first, but they didn’t fit, the cruise didn’t work, and the color was awful. I’m not completely sold that Passos are worth 8X the price, but I am completely satisfied with the performance.

I’m not completely sold that Passos are worth 8X the price, but I am completely satisfied with the performance. We hear a lot these days about China shipping cheap stuff to the USA and undercutting domestic manufacturers; this is a perfect example. Although a brake and clutch lever might appear to be a simple item they aren't, they are a precision engineered and manufactured product. Levers like Pazzo, ASV and others have unique designs and adjustment controls that have been carefully thought out, production CNC machines have been programmed to make the levers, a high quality anodization process used, the possibility to rebuild if damaged or worn, and good warranty coverage, etc. This all takes skilled engineers. All the Chinese makers do is back engineer the product and use the cheapest materials and production methods available so they can sell for the cheapest price, and then the item doesn't work as intended (cruise control and lousy finish). We interact with the bike in two main areas, our hands and feet, I'm not sure why you would want to go with a cheap knockoff. Quality is not cheap. |

Hey Evitzee, could you please post pics of your levers? I want some, and thanks to you guys, would buy either Passo or ASV. I always use 2 fingers for both levers, but this time want regular levers. They look more OEM IMO. Was thimking black with the red of the disc carriers, for a very subtle contrast. Opinions and best place to buy them welcome.

They look awesome!! Thanks. Will probably get those. And just the matching reddish wheel seems to match the rotors, just like I wanted. Thanks again. They look a weird color, but are black, correct? And with the model number you provided, no chance to mess up. And yes, the shorties might be functional for me, but look ugly. Better to have the extra leverage if you ever need it. And bike looks much better IMO😎.

Good to hear. Hey, checked on Revzilla and others and they seem to be back-ordered (one or the other). Darn. How about EvoTech? Revzilla had others, including Pazzos, but were unavailable too. Somebody mentioned having trouble with the EvoTechs, and later ‘clearing’ the issues (no explanation), so rather wait for good fitting ones.

Don’t want to keep waiting, so will go with Pazzo standards (black with red adjusters), since they also fit perfectly. Hope the red is close to the disc carriers, and not Ferrari red. They’re just a few bucks cheaper than ASV, widely available, and the logo is more subtle. Left to order is just seat and stands. Still debating between Corbin and the MT-10, and which stands as well. Need to be able to remove both wheels. Don’t need a Pitbull.

Are the myriad $150 Pazzo sets on eBay legit? Thx.
