          Well I would argue that the shorter they are the more out of harms way the levers are and therefore don't need the balls..

          Anouka congrats for being great lookin' and smart too.
          OMG that is the single most condescending thing I have heard in months..

              However, to get back on subject, I was thinking you could prolly buy some for not a lot of money. For purposes of eye appeal, spend the money.

                      it was my understanding that the balls are their to prevent the levers from becoming lodged in you in case of an accident...the balls are a protective measure lol although some could argue that point

                            There are some floating around here, but the site has been acting wonky for me the past few days, with no pictures loading and such, so me trying to search would be an effort in frustration. I'll take some new ones tonight, although they no longer look pretty and shiney, and you'll have to excuse the 2 inches of underground parking lot grunge currently coating my bike

                            here they are (well the clutch lever anyway, brake is identical)
