    Hi All - looking to install ASV short levers on a 2014 Speed Triple that has Brembo brakes. Can anyone out there tell me what Model of ASV c5 lever fits? Picture below from this forum seems to show them fitted, but I can't work out the model for the brake or clutch. The normal retail outlets seem to be confused with what model fits with the Brembo/2014.

    Cheers!! IMG_7746.JPG IMG_7747.JPG

    The levers are listed on the ASV website - and all internet searches for the correct levers appear to result in the same model:

    ASV Brake lever - BRC550 - available here: http://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/motorcycle_parts/content_prod/59600
    ASV Clutch lever - CRC541 - available here: http://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/motorcycle_parts/content_prod/59791

    I've attached the ASV Triumph product list too.

    I can tell you that the same levers fit my son's Daytona 675R (with Brembo brake) and the brake lever fits my 2016 Speed Triple R (with Brembo brake) but the clutch lever isn't compatible with my bike.

    You should have no worries buying from Sportsbikeshop - if they turn out not to fit, the return process is excellent.

    Thanks for the reply. I think the BRC550 will fit when you fit the additional parts that come with it, to connect the plunger to the Brembo cylinder. It would help if ASV pointed that out. The CRC541 didn't seem to fit my standard clutch lever either, so that is still a mystery.

    Out of interest did you fit an aftermarket clutch lever, and what model/number was it?

    Thanks for the heads up about Sportsbikeshop.

    They still list the clutch lever as compatible with my bike...but it doesn't fit - it's tight (with the bush installed correctly) and is missing the kill-switch tab.

    I gave up and bought these (for the 2016 Speed Triple R) on eBay for £45 for the pair.

    Hi mate, do you have the link for these?

    I bought some from eBay today but the brake lever needs the pin from the original and the spacing isn't big enough so engages the brake and doesn't touch the light switch

    Hi Moe - You've confused me a bit (easily done)...the link for the eBay ones that I bought was in my post (the word these in red), that's quoted as part as your reply.

    Here's the link again though:

    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TRIUMPH-S...e&clk_rvr_id=1214166304964&afsrc=1&rmvSB=true

    I'm not clear on what you bought from eBay, but take care, as they have to suit the R version with the brembo cylinder.

    My eBay ones are fine, but I've just bought and returned a pair from Oberon Performance. They checked with their engineer, who asked for some photos of the stock lever and promised they would fit. They looked beautiful when they arrived, but they were missing the kill switch tab. Idiots. What is wrong with these companies!? :eek:

    Hope you get yours sorted.

    Cheers,

    The hole for the pin that actually pushes the piston is too small. Should be 9.6mm but is 7.8, just measured it.

    These are the same ones I've ordered. Might just be a crap batch

    How did you

    Ah...you mean the barrel that the rod screws into - mine just slotted in as intended.

    I happen to have a picture - taken just before I removed the barrel from the stock lever.

    Get in touch with the seller - he's very helpful and responded to a query that I had with mine. For the record, I bought a pair for my MT-07 and they also fitted with no problems.

    Just in case anyone is still after advice on this, I've just ordered both Brake and UPDATED VERSION of the ASV Clutch lever and installed both without any issues.

    There is a thread showing pics and advice on here too.

    Hello, do you mind me asking for some advice, how did you get the plunger back into the rubber dust cover, it seems a right pig of a job as the rubber is so flimsy? Many thanks John

    I just pinched the rubber between my fingers and pushed it in. Took a few goes but not too bad bad.

    The above sounds so wrong

    I've sold my Speed now and just replaced the levers on my new bike.
    Exactly the same process though. I did put a bit of grease on to help but it was a bit of a pain to fit. You could try some needle nose pliers or even tweezers to hold the rubber in place, but I'd put a small bit of cloth or paper towels between the metal and rubber to avoid damage.

    Hey John, this is 3 or 4 bikes ago now but I do remember greasing it up and using pliers to slip it over the pin.

    I sorted this in the end.
    I found a pair of tweezers did the trick.
    Position them over the outside of the rubber dust cap and squeeze it enough to hold the hole still.
    offer the plunger up to the rub and by pushing them together, using the tweezers to ease the hole over the plunger, it worked quite easily and quickly.
    Many thanks everyone
