Titax levers. Worth the coins or not.?

Wish to replace the levers on my Hornet so any other suggestions will be appreciated.

Get a set of Chinese 'Spazzos'. About £25 off eBay. I'm sure the Titax are a good lever but I have had a couple of Chinese sets for both the Gladdy and the Striple with no problems.

I went through 3 sets of spazzos, through crashing rather than failures. The thicker ones labelled 'MotoGP', presumably without permission, are better than the weedy ones.

Cheers for the replies guy's.

Long (standard length) or do short levers feel better.?

I wouldn't trust the chinky ones again, had them on my CBR and the adjuster used to slip off, catching me out once or twice because I had to pull the levers further to brake. Took them off because I didn't want it to happen in an emergency stop

don't get a short brake lever, your brakes won't work, you'll bleed the system 3 times before realising that you can't pull the lever properly.

Bought a set of Chinese levers for £1 in a no reserve auction, went for short clutch and long brake, only problem I've got is that both levers hit the clocks stopping me going full lock.

Agree with above. I had chinky ones on my busa and my STR. Never had a problem

Ive been using Titax shorty levers for about 20 months, feel good not had any problems. Ive never used any others to make a comparison though and personally I wouldn't trust using cheap levers on my bike.

I've got £30 versions from ebvay on my Hornet, stubby levers and they are great.
