The Truth About Expensive Aftermarket Levers | Gilles Tooling FXL [unbox and Install]

[@RoadstyBiker]

@7:35 we see the rubber covering the plunger is tired all the way above to the ring. Without doing that u reduce the waterproofing.

[@falcn12]

ASV have 180 clicks of adjustment on their levers. Usually 4 inch range of adjustment.

This video made the entire process looked way easier than it is. The only challenge was figuring out the best way to push out the bushings without damaging the OEM levers. Amazing quality product by Gilles Tooling though!!! 😍

Hi Mike! Thanks for this video. It helped me a lot to mount my Gilles levers on my KTM Super Duke. I can confirm everything you say: perfect quality, fit and function. Greetings from Germany.

[@MotovationUSA]

Jawohl danke für die netten Worte!

[@Scorpiusza]

Hi Andi, do you mind me asking if the Gilles levers are longer than stock KTM ones? I'm thinking about these for my gen 3 1290R and am worried about them hitting lever guards. Thanks.

[@andiw8059]

Hi Scorpiusza, I don‘t have the OEM-Levels anymore, but I would say the Gilles levers are shorter, especially the clutch lever. The break lever is a bit longer than the clutch lever, but as far as I can remember, it is shorter than the original one.

[@andiw8059]

By the way, I am extremely satisfied with the Gilles levers

[@Scorpiusza]

​@@andiw8059amazing, thanks for the quick response..

I’ve said it many times before but y’all need to watch these videos in 4K cuz daaaaaaaaaaamn the details are so pronounced as if your right there holding the levers urself. AMAZING video! #stepyourgameup🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@ClutchFirst]

Yeah man, that 4K res is no joke. I actually shoot at a higher res and downscale to 4K for an even better output.

[@joeyjcalabrese]

Best quality I’ve seen on KZbin. Matches the products you review 👍👍👑

Great video! Just bought the levers and can’t wait to install on my V4.

[@ClutchFirst]

How to do you like them? Love mine.

[@ygmlopez1]

I bought these levers after watching this video. However, I was unable to install on my 21 Streetfighter V4 because the factory screw does not fit in the Gilles bushing on both levers. The bushing diameter on both levers is not wide enough to accommodate the screw. Working with MotovationUSA now on a replacement. Bummer.

[@coconutz247]

i have a 2020 multistradaa 1260 enduro. after i installed the new clutch lever, i start her up and when i shift to first gear the engine stalls. how do i adjust the clutch so i can idle while in gear?

[@governordnyce3244]

Damn that was a easy install. Great video introducing the Gilles brand Mike! Sound likeother companies better watch out. 👍👍

[@ClutchFirst]

The only challenged was figuring out a clever way to remove the bushing without causing any damage to the OEM levers. Always appreciate you watching D.

[@ejimenez365]

I wanted these for my 23' R1. But they only make the clutch lever. They don't make the brake lever.

[@MotovationUSA]

Gilles is likely the producer of the GYTR parts, and thus will only be selling those as Yamaha Genuine parts. That said, we have not seen fitment for the standard R1 yet. It looks like a Nissin master, so we might be able to sort it with some photos from you. Send us an email at Sales@ for more help. 🤙

[@ygmlopez1]

Mike, what size screw and nut did you use to remove the bushing?

[@vintagerealityvr]

Great production quality *of your vids

The plunger newer went past the rubber ring.

[@LifewithAnnaBee]

[@dawnsabin-simpson8938]

I love my Gilles rearsets on my honda rvf 400. Buy the best..buy Gilles.

[@falcn12]

KWR Army!

[@quade7024]

Actually it is a small luxemburgish brand and not german.

[@kiraocelot]

German quality right there :)

[@ClutchFirst]

Hells yeah!

[@raphaelreuland5592]

In fact Gilles Tooling is luxembourgish, not german. =)

[@gixxis3264]

If only they were foldable - such a shame , plus minimal colour options

[@MotovationUSA]

The Maximum Performance Folding Levers are the foldable option from Gilles Tooling.
