you can go get a 15 dollar cr perch and lever and modify it to be exactly like the ez pull lever or spend 20 to 25 bucks and get the chrome one.

 

350, if the bars are standard size then they will fit, if they are the oversize bars like the protapers then you need the big bar adapter or a new stem. later

I'm currently running the MSR raptor perch assy...works pretty good, looks good. But I've had some problems with it...the adjuster on the perch is all alluminum, and strips very easy...kinda hard on the cable too, I just keep it greased to prevent excessive wear. Good thing my stealership seems to like me, cause they've replaced 2 of the adjusters free of charge. If I were to get another, I'd probably get the PEP adjustable perch. Haven't heard anything bad about them, the g/f's shee has one & I like it...have some buddies who have them on their shee's & EX's and they haven't ever had any problems.

I have a MSR Raptor clutch assy. on mine, works fine. I got the standard because with heavy duty clutch springs it gives me more leverage. The standard is quite a bit shorter than the stock lever too.

 

Mine has held up well, I have had it on for a couple of years and finally had to make a new bushing for it where the bolt holds it on. It was getting a bit loose.

I just bought the Applied Racing Ball bearing clutch lever. The "ball bearing" sold me on thinking it would be smooth instead of sandy crusty feeling like the stock one. OH, its smooth, light, and hard as hell to pull especially since I have heavy duty clutch springs! Guess you can't beat the stock heavy lever for better leverage. Maybe next lever will be an easy pull one. I just couldn't find one online.

I'd be interested: tell me what I need to buy and what to do with the parts. That would make a great post for Tips & Tricks!

Oh well, after this T-Day in Glamis, my left hand/forearm will be worked out good!
