Hawk Lever Suggestions?

Skyd · 05-21-2021, 08:31 AM

Howdy folks,

So I dug around a bit on this topic and did find a few things but they were older posts and the product links were all dead.

Looks like Grom style levers work on our Hawks? So that means I can swap just the lever and leave the perch alone ya?

Also, does anyone have any good budget conscious suggestions. I really am not a fan of the large clunky levers that come stock. They're ok for now but especially the clutch lever I feel like I'm forced to use more than 2 fingers because of the size and sweep, I dunno it feels wierd to me. I had short levers on my DRZ (literally just cut them). I might just cut these but rather get something that works and looks decent.

I'm still waiting for my Fat bars to come from China. They are 3 weeks late at this point, I'm about ready to order some from Amazon Prime shipping and if these ever show up I'll have spares, I dunno, I'm impatient sometimes.

I'm using some like these on the tbr7 https://www.ebay.com/itm/Motorcycle-....m46890.l49286 and havent had any issues. You'll want to adjust the where you like them then snug down the position screws or they can change the settings. Oh and they're purdy! Lol

Oh ya, those are the whole kit and kaboodle eh....hmmm I like those, I'll have to add them to my watch list. I might wait til I figure out what the deal is with my bars, if I order different ones I'm not sure if they all taper to 7/8" at the controls or not, I've actually never had fat bars before but rudden a few bikes with them.

I had been looking at just swapping the levers only but most I found were pairs for like $30 so this is an intriguing solution and those red ones will match my red hawk ;-)

I'm using the same ones on my Hawk. I've been having them for a few years with no issues. Much better than stock.
