DescriptionThe whole story▼

The CBF 1000 was built to be useful rather than exciting, and it succeeded so thoroughly that a lot of them are still doing high mileages. High mileage is exactly the condition under which a lever that does not fit your hand becomes a genuine complaint.

Key Features

  • Central adjuster wheel, reachable from the riding position
  • Folding blade that swings clear instead of snapping off
  • Engineered break point inside the two-finger zone
  • Phosphated pivot seat, free of play from new
  • CNC-machined from solid aluminium, black anodised
  • Road legal in Germany under ABE No. KBA 91203

Material and Pivot

Machined from one piece of aluminium, anodised black, with the pivot bore phosphated separately. A bike used this heavily wears its controls, and a treated bearing is what keeps the replacement from going the same way.

Distance Changes the Argument

Nobody buys a lever for a CBF 1000 to go faster. They buy it because after four hours the hand is tired, and most of that tiredness comes from a reach that is slightly too long repeated a few thousand times.

Two Sets of Gloves

A bike ridden year-round sees thick gloves and thin ones within the same month. The adjuster wheel absorbs the difference in seconds, without tools, and holds its setting without a lock nut.

Road Approval

Holds ABE No. KBA 91203 for German public roads. Print the certificate from this page and keep it with the vehicle papers; no entry and no separate inspection are required.
