Any experience or opinions on Pazzo levers?

I have seen a couple pictures of Guzzis with Pazzo levers and was just wondering if they are little more than bling or are they really well made works of art that make using the levers sublime... A cool accessory for say a Griso or just money tossed in the wind - anyone have any experience with these?
 
They're nicely made. I think CRGs are finished a little better. The shorty versions work well on the brake side but not well on the clutch side. If you want super sexy control feel and a useful boost in brake performance, fit Brembo RCS master cylinders.
 
I have em on my griso, work and look great. They offer a bit more range adjustability than the stockers, and are a no brainer once you crash and need new levers.... The guy on ebay in new york is good to deal with and gives good service
 
Wondering ... do they allow to reduce the travel of the clutch lever?
 
These levers are from Daes Mototec. They have a completely different feel then the oEM levers because they are square-edged and fatter. I like the feel and the looks. The machining is excellent and the adjustment for 'span' works well. They come in a silver and titanium finish as well as the black shown. They work especially well with thick winter gloves.

I put Pazzo levers on my Norge. I like the look and feel but it was a pain getting the clutch lever on. On the Norge the clutch lever has a pin that makes contact with a switch. This pin must be removed from the stock lever and moved to the Pazzo lever. That pin is a major pain to remove as it is held on with the tinniest of allen screws that must have some type of thread lock on it. The odds of you not stripping out the head of that allen screw trying to unscrew it, is slim to none. If I remember correctly I had to drill the screw out then re-tap the hole and put a slightly larger screw in. Another problem I see with the Pazzo levers compared with the stock ones is durability. The stock levers have a bushing pressed into the pivot hole on the lever, the Pazzos don't. I'm sure over time the pivot hole on the Pazzos will begin to enlarge as it's aluminum rotating on steel.

But hey, they do look nice.
