Default China shift levers... Beware

Just picked up a pair of china levers. Not only did I end up snapping off what I assume is the "Clutch safety button" which I guess stops me from starting the bike with the clutch out.... But the Brake lever does not push the front master cylinder properly and has been gouged out by the part the lever pushes against... Anyways, this is a total bummer and a waste of 30 bucks. Anyone got a suggestion for levers that actually work?


Thanks


Sean

The OEM levers work fine.

$30 for $2 levers??
Kawasaki OEM parts, at Rocky Mtn ATV:
46092-0050 (replaces part #46092-1206) LEVER-GRIP,CLUTCH $5.40
46092-1140 LEVER-GRIP,FRONT BRAKE $17.34

I'd also try Gnarly Parts, they seem to have a surprising amount of stuff close at hand. The bake levers always seem to be a bit pricey, but taking your damaged one into a dealer may help you find an aftermarket one(Motion Pro, etc) that will work for this application
