Had a modified bike break on my home built, have a lever style on my current one. I like each for different reasons. Bike break you have more control, lever is better on long runs and for getting the right cruising rpms

X2 on the clutch lever. my first one I called up gator tail and ordered there's. Worked pretty good till the first tree it ran up against. Damn cracked and I was able to half ass use it to get back, went with an old dirt bike lever.
