    I few days ago I posted seeking a Clutch lever for my 98 VFR. Now I am considering just upgrading to a shorty or such. However, I can't find anything due to it being so old, I assume? Any suggestions for what others have used?

    It shouldn't be an issue finding them for your year, I think they are the same as my '99. Just do a Google
    search for shorty levers, you should find a ton of them. I can't remember where I got mine, but you can
    go cheap or go expensive, whatever your budget allows.

    Found out why I was having trouble. Previous owner replace OEM controls with Kawasaki ZRX1200R controls.

    Ah, that might explain it. Any reason for that? And now that you know, you can probably find shorty levers
    that will work with your setup.
