In the meantime, here are the TEC levers i had installed last week.
Have not had the time to ride much, but so far they feel great and perform well.

Are those the ones used on the T120's?

Yes they are indeed!

Got them! Took max. 5 minutes to install. Much better fit for my hands.

Take a look at this website:

TEC CNC Alloy Adjustable Front Brake & Clutch Long Lever Set - Water-cooled Models | TEC Bike Parts - Custom Motorcycle Exhausts, Suspension & Parts

Thanks for this. I needed a replacement brake lever after mine broke off after slamming into the ground.

Here's the US page, direct link to the same set - $49 shipped - http://www.tecbikepartsusa.com/TEC_CNC_Alloy_Adjustable_Front_Brake_Clutch_Leve_p/t-cnc-fbcl-wc.htm

Hey Eisen, can you please post a picture where I could the stock and the new lever close together and where I could compare their proportions? Please let me know the distance between the center of rotation and the tip! Thanks in advance!

Hi.

Do these pics help...?

 

[bigbird]

Thanks a lot, Eisen! But I didn't realize, that the levers I'm interested on, are those on Mike the Bike's Bobber!

Mike, can you provide the needed information? Your levers seem to be as long as the stock ones! Can you confirm?

Cheers!

 

[eisen77]

Not a problem.
Me and my Wunderkind levers are glad to be of service at any time :wink2:
@Mike the Bike, can you help Bigbird out...?

 

[Mike the Bike]

Well I just went into my garage, one of the lights has blown so I hope you can see the two levers together here.
The original is slightly longer but the CNC ones fit the hand much better. If you look closely at pic 2, you should be able to see how much better it's position and size fits to the handlebar grip.

They are from the Triumph accessories catalogue, and desiged for the T120 and Thruxton models; but also fit the Bobber.

Hope this helps.

Cheers!

Thanks for the pictures, Mike!

Cheers!

You're welcome

Installed the black Triumph levers (see Mike's pictures above) today and I'm very pleased about them! Both levers are just 2 mm shorter than the stock ones, so there is no drawback regarding the leverage ratio! Great investment! Thank you guys for your help!

Cheers,

Firstly thank you for the original post and advising on the TEC option!!! And I just wanted to add that TEC levers work on the BLACK BOBBER too! Just installed it myself and was fairly easy, brake lever can be done with eyes closed ;0, clutch a bit trickier... let me know if anyone wants to see, I’ll post some pics... btw, the more expensive OG Triumph factory option for T120 which are avail-will work on all the Bobbers as well because these TECs were originally made for newer water cooled Bonnevilles... meaning they are interchangeable... hope it helps those who are considering...

On a scale of 1-10, what would you guys say the level of difficulty is to install new levers? I'm considering the TEC levers to better fit my hands. I usually wear a size large glove, so my hands aren't Trump-stubby or anything, but the factory levers can be a bit of a stretch from time to time. I haven't really messed around with trying to adjust the factory levers though. Perhaps I should try that first, since the silver vs black levers isn't really an issue for me? Any non-color related advantages to the TEC or other aftermarket levers?

I installed Chines levers and am very pleased with them. The price is also very pleasing.
