what about R71 levers?
they're close... just not as hidden.
everything I say is pure speculation and
I have no idea what I'm talking about  ._.

Those would work if they're cheaper. I'm building a cb350t for "The Wife" and I thought those levers would be a nice fit to the style she wants. It's kind of a Board Tracker inspired brat bike, if that makes since.

don't have a link, but I saw a set on one of the S&S anniversary bikes and remember reading they were from Exile.


I found some made by these guys googling S&S anniversary bikes, thanks.

Yeah, I wish I had the patience and money to build something half as cool as he does.

It'd be nice if I could find some that weren't $600.
I'm thinking about making my own at this point.

I know a guy, that built his own.. even put the MC & res inside the bars.. maybe even a clutch cylinder.. he said it was not easy..

 Looked pretty good. see red boardtracker.. BTR3.. at goldammer cycles..

 got to talk to the Laverda guy @ Columbia Car & Cycle.. bet he could source stock Beemer type..

Thanks for the tip. The 350 is drum front/rear so I only need cables. I don't think I'd try it if  I had to run a MC. I'll check around for the bmw's before I try to make my own.

i take it you've been to the builder's site? words don't begin to describe the awesomeness!

i like gravel crews work too. what's the details of the black bike's mill? isn't it a japan only 250 or something?

 too bad if so.

Yes, I believe it's a 250.
I love the tail light.  And I love the simplicity of it.  I tend to like simpler designs. 

I pulled those off their website.  Actually, I saw this builder for the first time today when I clicked a link you gave about 70 pages back.  :)
