Are they ebay jobs?
Difference between shorties is you get more pressure on the lever as your pulling further out giving more leverage, If your used to braking and changing gears with 2 fingers you'll love them.

you shouldnt get any more pressure/leverage with shorties if you use 2 fingers on your normal levers, you get the same leverage, BUT your lever cant come back and pinch your little fingers so you get more travel.
If you stick a shorty on your clutch side you will soon get sore hands in traffic.
if you use shorties at the track, less chance of them snapping off if you crash.
check out the motoGP guys, no shorties there.
check out the ASBK bikes, they use stock levers.
shorties are bling basicly.

check this out. Pair of levers AUS $193 plus AUS $32 delivered from the US - = 225 - these are pazzos, with the 3 holes & wave grain pattern. Gotta love the exchange rate at the moment.!!!
I take it back, we get screwed on delivery, superbikesupply.com.au is cheaper.... $205 + 12 delivered = 217
