DescriptionThe whole story▼
Bonamici Racing has built its reputation on one principle: Italian craftsmanship that performs as well as it looks. The LB280 adjustable brake lever translates that philosophy directly to the Yamaha YZF-R9, replacing the standard item with a precision CNC-machined aluminium lever finished in a hard-anodised coat that sets the controls apart visually and functionally from the moment it is fitted.
Key Features
- CNC-machined from solid aluminium billet for exceptional rigidity with minimal weight — a direct upgrade over the cast OEM lever
- Multiple reach positions allow precise tailoring to hand size, riding style and glove thickness, improving comfort across road and track sessions alike
- Improved torsional stiffness reduces lever flex under hard braking, delivering cleaner, more direct feedback at the fingertips
- Hard-anodised finish resists corrosion, abrasion and UV fade while giving the cockpit a purposeful, race-derived aesthetic
- Direct OEM replacement — mounts to the existing factory pivot and hydraulic master cylinder without modifications to the handlebar or brake line
- Designed and manufactured in Italy under Bonamici Racing's exacting motorsport standards
Design, Finish and Heritage
The LB280 is where Italian racing heritage meets everyday usability on the YZF-R9. Bonamici Racing's levers are a fixture in the paddock precisely because the finish quality matches the engineering underneath: the anodised surface is uniform, consistent and available in a range of colours — from understated matte black and silver to vivid orange, gold, green, blue, bronze and red — so the lever complements the R9's bodywork rather than clashing with it.
The aesthetic is not incidental. A lever that looks right on the bar tends to mean the geometry and proportions have been thought through from the outset, and the LB280 bears that out. The clean machined profile, debossed Bonamici markings and precisely chamfered edges are the hallmarks of a part made in a proper racing facility, not a generic aftermarket supplier.
Performance on Road and Track
Reach adjustment on the LB280 is straightforward and tool-accessible, covering multiple indexed positions so the lever tip sits exactly where the rider wants it — a detail that matters enormously on a machine as focused as the YZF-R9. Once set, the increase in stiffness over the standard lever is immediately perceptible: brake modulation becomes more intuitive, initial bite feels sharper and the transition from light trail-braking to full pressure is easier to manage with confidence. For trackday riders who spend time working on corner entry, that clarity is a genuine performance advantage.
Fitment and Compatibility
The Bonamici Racing LB280 is engineered specifically for the following model:

Installation uses the standard OEM mounting points. No handlebar modification, bracket adaptation or brake line alteration is required. The lever ships with fitting instructions, and the installation process is straightforward for any rider comfortable with basic maintenance.
