    Looking for modern handlebar levers

    Does anyone know what modern handlebar levers and grips are compatible with a GS 1000?
    Specifically, I'm looking for a clutch lever assy that can bolt on and off the handlebar without having to pull the handle grip off.
    It also needs to accomodate the rear view mirror and last but not least I'd like to have open ended handle grips
    Same on the throttle side: is there a open ended handle grip that's compatible with the push/pull throttle housing?
    What about the M/C?

    Should be able to use just about any front brake lever assembly that fits 7/8 handlebars. I use a lot of harley levers on the honda choppers I build (they are more aesthetically pleasing than most). They all work on the same principle- when you pull the brake lever, it uses a piston to push fluid to the caliper. Fittings may be a different story, but most parts stores have a variety in stock. (at least in CO). Not a big deal if you need to convert to a different fitting, and it never hurts to upgrade your brake lines to steel braid! Just make sure you get the right length and fittings, and you will be good.
