Large clutch and brake levers!

Call me crazy, but a few months ago I was at a Yamaha demo day. All the demo bikes had clutch and brake levers that felt really thick and big. I thought they were just stock so i didn't bother to look at a brand. Regardless I love the way the levers felt and would love to get a set. They were black. Can anyone tell me of some brands that have a lever that gives it kinda a larger feel?

Just look up the Oem specs of the bike or just look up the actual demo bike itself

They weren't the stock ones. I looked at the new yamahas saturday. Didn't think about trying to reach the people that own the demo bikes. Although I'm sure if they're demos they go through levers like crazy lol. Thanks!

if they were black levers they weren't stock. they may put some rotating levers on the demo bikes because they know its going to get laid down often. could be ARC or ASV levers.
sent you a PM too.

Yamaha does in fact have thicker stock levers than most other brands. I think they went this direction in 2010 with the first rearward-engine YZ450. I really like them.
