Triumph Adjustable Lever Kit - Fit & Review

[@mexx0the0king]

My man, thanks for all the street twin content

[@mancavemoto]

No problem

[@TheEltervaag]

I love that you try out all these diffrent accessories for the Street Twin. That makes my desission for my ST so much easier when you give reviews. Thumbs up.

[@bill_4359]

You have part numbers listed. Did not see them at first look. Thanks again.

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks trond

[@Moto_Miles]

Having just dropped my new Street Twin at 0.3mph on it's first ride and snapping the clutch lever, this is super helpful thanks Tony! Don't ride whilst recovering from COVID is the lesson!

[@mancavemoto]

Glad to be of help, hope the bikes not too bad

[@AugustoJNNeto]

Hi Tony. Once again I find myself in one of your high quality videos in order to complete the next mod on my 2016 street twin. Bar end mirrors, headlight grill, gear peg, tank pads, Pirelli Scorpions - all done. Now it’s time for the break levers. Next on the list is the speedo black out. Although I’m always watching the recent uploads, your old street twin’s videos still feels very pleasant to watch. Ride safe.

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks Augusto, its good to hear that the videos are still being useful

[@FreedomRider-id6yv]

Just ordered these for my 2019 Street Scrambler, going to use this video for the install when they arrive. Thanks a lot for making this!

[@mancavemoto]

Glad I could help

[@FreedomRider-id6yv]

@@mancavemotothe install went well, with one exception. For us mechanically challenged types, make sure and look UNDER the clutch to see how the cable attaches. I didn’t look and it was somewhat tricky getting the end of the cable on the new lever. There is a little round hole under the clutch and that’s where the ball end of the cable snaps in place. Thanks again for the video, love the levers. 0:11

[@Flippantduke]

Saw these on your site and ordered from Triumph. Followed your instructions step by step. Went perfectly. This was my second mod to my ST. Look awesome. Thanks for the video.

[@mancavemoto]

Nice one Damon, there’re a great bit of kit aren’t they

[@paulstafford8398]

Good video as per usual from Tony. I have just done an install of the equivalent Triumph machined lever kit on a Thruxton R and I offer this word of warning to anyone using Tony’s install on his bike as a guide to how easy it might be on the Thruxton R . I naively figured it would pretty much the same. It’s very different. The clutch lever is fitted very much as per Tony’s install and is a piece of cake. The brake lever is a real bugger to fit. The kit doesn’t include all the parts needed. You have to salvage several of them from the original lever which I can only presume this is to keep the cost of the kit down. That’s not so bad, but you then have a devil of a job getting the pivot bolt relocated because you’re working against the reloaded spring tension. Might be easier if you had the special factory tool referred to in the instructions but I didn’t have it. Almost needs another pair of hands.

[@mancavemoto]

Cheers Paul, its a shame its more of a pig of a job on the thruxton!

[@bigdavedogdad]

Used this to fit levers to my 2022 Speedmaster. All good. Thanks!

[@mancavemoto]

No problem, glad it helped

[@Clint_the_Audio-Photo_Guy]

I just picked up a used Scrambler 1200 XC with 750 miles on it and was trying to figure out if these levers were optional upgrade parts. It seems they are. I keep finding bonus options on my bike, whoever had it before went to town on the upgrades.

[@leebreeze7175]

Holy Cow! Finally a KZbinr that knows how to edit a video. Brilliant video! Thank You

[@mancavemoto]

Why thank you sir

[@dke7838]

Another excellent walkthrough from the Man Cave! Thank you for this helpful content

[@mancavemoto]

Cheers

[@andrewstone6788]

Just used your video as a guide to switch my levers out, super simple to do. Thank you!

[@mancavemoto]

no problem, glad it helped

[@greyghost327]

I just purchased these yesterday at the dealership. They look great and feel good in my hands!

[@ashwinoashwin]

Hi. I am planning to buy these. How would you rate them as against stock?

[@pierremartin9048]

Very handsome addition there, classy

[@mancavemoto]

They look great don’t they?

[@BuzzinhornetCBR]

Excellent instructional video, well done.

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks

[@jjnewman65]

Nice one Tony. Triumph want £185 for a pair of these now. I’ll go with Tecs £50 efforts. I bought them before. Perfectly adequate if not quite the quality finish.

[@mancavemoto]

Ouch!

[@frazzle657]

You can screw the clutch adhustment all the way in if you cant stretch the cable. Then obviously adjust back to spec

[@aarondiaz5691]

Just fitted my levers with your help man! Thanks so much for the awesome video once again.

[@mancavemoto]

No probs Aaron, glad it helped

[@ashwinoashwin]

Hi Aaron? How do you like these levers? I am planning to buy them and can't seem to find reliable reviews for the same

[@taxmanmotorcycles1]

Hi Tony : I think it is 2 to 3 mm of free play for the clutch - p 88 of owner's hand book. Fine job as always.

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks Peter, I'll have a look, I took the freeplay from the fitting instructions for the levers.

[@tsmgguy]

Thanks! I'm with you on using OEM accessories because of fit and compatibility. Guys are fitting aftermarket TEC levers and are having problems with breaking the brake and clutch lever micro switches. No such problems with the OEM "long" levers for my T120.

[@mancavemoto]

Exactly! tsmgguy

[@rensaligumba6334]

Awesome Vid. How about a video on how to change the grips. Thanks!!

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks, maybe if I need to change the grips sometime

[@Ransonikuo]

How did you get that pivot sleeve out at 4:26? Did yours just slide out easily? Mine seems welded onto the lever itself... might need to buy one it seems.

[@mancavemoto]

Yep, it just pushed out easily. But my levers were still relatively new.

[@Ryan_Harkin]

Nice, just bought the short version for my 675. Happy days.

[@mancavemoto]

Ryan Harkin Yep, they are lovely things

[@VFactory-vl5fi]

Nice video. Does the new set solve the up and down clutch lever waggle?? I hate that! I’ve had it on all of my bikes. Speed triple S. considering these as a more fine fitted option. Thanks.

[@mancavemoto]

Yes it does!

[@53patmunoz]

Hey Tony, I’m a few years late to the party.. but I just installed these levers onto my 2022 street twin. Everything went perfectly thanks to you. Only thing is the brake lever feels to far. I have relatively large hands XL glove size. And I’ve played with the dial adjustments. Even the lowest setting feels far compared to my stock levers. Any advice?

[@stevenelliott5403]

Bit late in the day but I'm with you on this, if you have smaller hands I don't think these would be suitable which is crazy, that's the whole idea of these levers

[@jameswilson9385]

Levers look nice. Why did they not include a new bushing for the clutch. Or better yet already have a new one installed on the new lever? Looks about the same as the Strada brand which i sent back due to lousy fit. A.S.V. ordered. Rocket X

[@mancavemoto]

Good question james, but one for Triumph. These fit perfectly and have worked faultlessly since being installed.

[@Rosakru]

I'm extremely happy with the same levers on my Street Cup. Are you happy with them now that they've been on a bit?

[@volt7cooltangs701]

Thank you so much. Great vid, really helpful. You star.

[@mancavemoto]

No problem, glad it helped

[@jonasvaccaro7606]

Hey. Great video! The little pinion sleve wont come out of the old clutch lever. I have tried to spray som oil on it, and even tried to knock it out but it's stuck. Any ideas?

[@mancavemoto]

Have you tried some heat on it?

[@jonasvaccaro7606]

@@mancavemoto No, but wouldn't that only expand the metal further? I can certainly try.

[@mancavemoto]

They are two different metals so will expand at different rates. It might be enough just to free it?

[@bill_4359]

Sunday, June 11th I stupidly dropped my 2017 Triumph Street Cup! I bent the clutch lever. Now I know how to replace. Thanks . Never dropped any bike for 30 years. Getting old! Could you add the part numbers, Thanks for the how to video. Keep them coming. From California, USA.

[@bill_4359]

I see that you listed the part numbers. Thanks

Sweet looking; better by a country mile! 👍

It sure is!

[@c.a.i.o]

Nice, where can i buy those for my ST 675R 2016, i saw a short version, but someone told me that the short version doesn´t fix in my street triple, is that true?, i´m form Perú.

[@SnakePlizkin]

Awesome, sadly i can't use them legaly in germany since they are not TÜV approved from what i could find.

[@timu2750]

Changed mine yesterday (t120) but had some real trouble to find the exact spot to get the bolt back into the break lever. First I thought the new lever was not ok, but I could not put the old lever back in, either. After lots of trying it worked with the new one. Is there any „trick“ I missed? Clutch was no prob, went in easily.

[@mancavemoto]

No trick, mine just went straight in. Strange

[@estebanviveros7310]

Fit on Bonneville Bobber?

[@ThinhNguyen-in9jm]

Please help!! I was able to change the brake easily. But I can’t get the clutch screw to rotate and line up with groove. Do you have any advice? Thank you!

[@mancavemoto]

Which screw are you referring too?

[@blaw810]

Will these fit the trident 660?

[@paddys4236]

Do these work on Bonneville T100 AC models?

[@mancavemoto]

I don't think they do, from what i understand its a different lever

[@detroitdizzle5513]

Great job as always!

[@mancavemoto]

+Detroit Dizzle Thanks Dude

[@classicdice21]

I got the levers as well, but I'm having issues with putting in the pivot sleeve into the new clutch. It doesn't fit. Did you have any issues with that?

[@mancavemoto]

Hi Classic Dice, no I didn't have any issues with that, it was a slightly tighter fit, but not much.

[@classicdice21]

I must have a defective one then, the hole is definitely too small for the sleeve to fit in.

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks really strange, worth popping into a triumph dealer to let them take a look. I can't imagine they would differ from bike to bike, so its not that they are the wrong levers (im thinking maybe packed in the wrong box?)

[@LordAnestis]

May i ask, does this fit all the models? I have a Street Triple R (2010)

[@mancavemoto]

This part is listed for Street Twin, Street Cup, street scrambler, T100, T120 and thruxton 1200. The street triple version you’d need depends on your Vin number, there are various part numbers

[@LordAnestis]

@@mancavemoto Ok thanks for the fast reply!

[@billbarrett6285]

I personally prefer chrome. I hope Triumph will offer a chrome oem replacement.

[@jarrodbenson4156]

Would these fit on the air cooled efi scramblers? I have a 2014.

[@mancavemoto]

I'm not sure they would, I'd need to check.

[@ashwinoashwin]

Hi. I am planning to buy these for my t100. How are they after 3 years of usage? Are they more comfortable and ergonomic than stock.

[@mancavemoto]

They offered more adjustment which is what I wanted and are nice to use

[@ashwinoashwin]

@@mancavemoto are they ergonomically more comfortable to use than stock levers?

[@Knightlore10]

On my speed triple, the stock levers have a master cylinder plunger that has to be removed and added to the new lever before fitting. If anyone knows how to get the damn thing out of the lever please tell me. I have 2016 model with Brembos.

Hey! Did you ever find the Abeer to this question as I just realized I have the same issue? Any advice or possibly links to videos or guides would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Tony, thank you for another great video. I am new to KZbin and was wondering if there is a way to send an e-mail to you or is it best to communicate here. Would like your advice on a couple of items I am looking at (center stand or scissor jack, shocks upgrade, etc). Mahalo!

I have these fitted to my T120 and even on the lowest setting they're only just about where I want them to be and I have big hands, I don't know how anyone would get on with shorter fingers, just seems a bit odd, but they're most definitly better than what comes on the bike, at £195 I guess they should be 🤪

[@mancavemoto]

Strange, I have relatively short fingers, but i found them to be OK

[@stevenelliott5403]

@@mancavemoto Yes very strange, I replaced them with some from evotech and they're much better, I don't feel like I'm going to crash now as I can actually get some pressure on the brake lever, maybe the speed twin a slightly different?
