Use long and thin hex allen key and brake cleaner spray. With allen key go into the grip from the inside (or from outer side if accessible). Spray brake cleaner into the gap. move allen key inside grip around handlebar as far as possible, add more brake cleaner spray eventually. Start turning grip on handlebar and finally pull off grip. This works even for rubber grips installed with grip glue without destroying them. Should be done within 30 sec per grip.

I'm sorry I don't have these levers any more so I can't take a photo to show you what they should look like, but it is possible that ASV have put the wrong lever in the box (it has been known!)- 5mm is way out. An easy way to tell is that basically the pivot area should be the same shape as your stock lever.

I would check that the Tenere master cylinders are still the same across all years (someone on here should be able to confirm) first, then perhaps take a photo of the pivot area on the one you have, and ask ASV to confirm they have sent the correct lever?

I'm sure you'll get it sorted, and they are worth it believe me x

brc541 turned up today for tenere 660 brake lever, fits perfect, original one they sent me was right box part number with the wrong lever inside as jmo thought. why are women always right?

ASV + KTM 990 handguards

Anybody tried the ASV levers Jenny recommended with KTM handguards?

Or does anybody know how the regular length ASV clutch lever compares to the stock lever in length? I had to file quite a bit out of the stock lever to make it fit nice under the handguard and chopping the nice ASV lever would not be ideal...

I have the ASV's with Barkbusters.

The levers are much shorter than stock, you can squeeze three fingers onto them, but two is comfortable.

Do you have the short versions or the regular length versions?

Sorry, should have said, short as per JMo's post further up the thread
