Having spent far too much time on ADV rider while I've been here, I thought it might be an idea to start a thread to show our favorite bits of bike candy and/or utter waste of money...

OK, so I really just wanted an excuse to show off my latest modification (now my big trip is essentially over, I thought I'd treat the Tenere to some trinketry) - but it is also tenuously helpful for anyone looking to fit replacement levers on the Tenere:

These are the C5 Sport (streetbike) levers, rather than the off-road specific ones... the brake lever is the FZ1/FZ6 04-08 version, and directly fits the Tenere master cylinder. ASV pn. BRC541 (-S if you want the shorty version like this)




The clutch lever is the same as the Suzuki GSXR 600/750 from 97-05 (also the V-Strom DL650 04-07 or the SV650 99-06) and fits the stock Tenere perch - yea! ASV pn. CRC530 (-S if you want the shorty version like this)




They are meant to be unbreakable (this version has a 5-year guarantee) and certainly bend in a crash, although not as far round as their off-road specific F3 levers...




They also come in a right fancy box... mmmmmmmm!



Like I say, a totally expensive and unnecessary (perhaps?) addition, but make the bike feel like a million dollars!

Hi, ordered a asv brake lever for my 2011 tenere 660, part no asv brc541sk, but the asv lever thats been delivered is about 5mm to thick to fit on to the existing perch?? i,ve also orderd the crc530s for the clutch lever, not yet arrived, i hope the asv clutch levers not going to be the same, any one got any ideas why it doesnt fit on to my perch?
