If so, are they any better than stock?

They also have our bikes listed under the ISO grips too, not sure what the diff. if between these ones and the universal ISO grips is. Maybe they just come with instructions or something. http://www.kuryakyn.com/products.asp?bn=metric&ci=2921

I bought them, but haven't put them on yet. I'm waiting for some other parts to do a few mods at once!

Cool, make sure and let us know how you like them.

I'll do that, I have heard they are great! I'm ready to get ride of the bicycle looking ones on there now. It doesn't look from the packaging there is much in the way of directions, but it can't be that hard to put them on!

Probably just jinxed yourself.

I have the levers you are talking about. I got them because of when I broke my brake lever. Yes, I dropped my new M50 but the lever and a slightly bent brake pedal was all...very lucky. Anyway, I put the clutch lever on and like it, they are a nice chrome and look great. I chose to not replace the broken brake lever however because the Kury is not adjustable. Perhaps this will not be a big deal to you but I always ride covering the brake whenever I am in any area where animals may be (which is where I live) and always in town. It is much easier for me to do that with an adjustable lever. Also, my broken one is barely any shorter as the only part that broke off was the knob. If I was showing or selling the bike, of course I would put the new one on. They are very easy to install. Hope this helps.

Thanks for your post. Seems like another good cheap mod for our bikes.
