DescriptionThe whole story▼

The factory lever on a Z800 fits everyone and suits nobody. LighTech builds the LEVD148J as Model J — foldable, lighter than the original, with a fully black finish throughout. It bolts to the Z800 with the original hardware — nothing else is needed.

Key Features

  • Model J: a fully black finish, no inserts to come loose
  • Replaces the factory lever directly on the Z800
  • LighTech part number LEVD148J, listed for the Kawasaki Z800
  • Reach adjustment the original Z800 lever does not offer
  • No drilling, no cutting, nothing permanent on the Z800
  • 100 % Made in Italy, with the tricolour logo on the blade

What Folding Buys You

There are two reasons to change a lever, and only one of them is weight. LighTech states the LEVD148J is produced in compliance with the highway code and the applicable laws. LighTech levers are used by teams in MotoGP, Moto2, Moto3 and WSBK.

Changing It Over

No fluid is lost fitting the LEVD148J to a Z800 — the circuit stays closed. Work the lever through its full travel before you trust it on the Z800. No bleeding and no adjustment of the master cylinder is involved.

Fitment and Compatibility

LighTech catalogues the LEVD148J for the Z800 (2013 to 2016). The original Z800 hardware carries it; keep the old lever as a spare.

Choosing a Model

The J is the plain one, and that is the whole point of it. No inserts means nothing to replace and nothing to lose on a wet Z800. All three models mount to the Z800 the same way; only this detail differs.

What Is in the Box

The LEVD148J arrives as a single lever with its pivot hardware. Keep the reference — a second order for the same Z800 is then unambiguous.

Regulations

The manufacturer's position is that the lever range complies with the relevant road legislation. It is a manufacturer declaration; there is no ABE and no Teilegutachten in the LEVD148J box. For a track-only Z800 none of this applies.
