Default cbr levers

I am going to replace both levers on my 97cbr600 f3 and I am wondering if they are just a slap on or do I need to adjust cables? Thanks

They just slap on. I bought the cheapest ones I could find on amazon, the finish will come off over time but, When i dropped my bike they just bent rather than snapping off like my honda levers. Just a thought

Does anybody know if the adjustable ones are worth the money? Otherwise my stock ones are fine.

Now the ones on mine do have a like a bigger thin nut, but not sure if it's for cable adjustment or for where the handle. The expensive levers I'm seeing has a lever on them as well which I am not sure what it's for.

mine on the ex and superhawk both are just for the lever, never seen the kind you are talking about. Sounds interesting though....

Where did you find them at?

Maybe I was wrong. It looks like they replace the thumb nut with a lever. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SET-P...#ht_4137wt_816

I do like those, but personally I think they do the same as the cheaper ones. So I would go with cheaper set

I got the no name brand ones from auctmarts on ebay. Pretty good seller. Think I payed $42, and I love them. Only took about a week and a half to get them
