Just put on the ASV shorty levers BikerGoddess got me. I first saw these on Desmostro's 848 in Monterey, and instantly knew I wanted a set. Then I saw their booth at Laguna Seca, and almost bought them there, but was concerned that they didn't have my specific model listed so I passed. Then my wonderful girlfriend showed up yesterday at my house with an early birthday present  waytogo

Excellent fit & finish, and they look phenomenal on the Monster. They definitely make it nicer to brake, although I tend to use 3 fingers on the S4R's clutch...it's a workout, even with an aftermarket slave  Grin

The retail price for these levers is steep, but definitely worth it. They're guaranteed against breakage, even if you crash. I'll get some pics posted as soon as I can get my card reader working again.

Piece of cake. Took all of 5 minutes.

I got them too, right before going to tahoe for the fourth.  They are GREAT.  That's really all that needs to be said.  Although you must always ignition in neutral but it's not that big of a deal. 

DesmoQuattro- anything goin on at zeitgeist soon?  just moved next to Dolores park and am in the hood now  Grin

Excellent! We do the last Thursday of the month at Zeitgeist, but I see nobody's posted about it. I may or may not make it, as I'll be returning from a business trip that evening. But I'm usually up for a beer at Ace Cafe, so PM me for my number and ring me sometime.

Thats different.  My ASV shortys allow starting in gear.  Perhaps having the tab for the clutch is an option (slightly different model number)?
