Thruxton Non Matching Clutch & Brake Leavers.
Hi, While every one has been looking at the good looks of the Thruxton, how many have actually noticed that the Clutch and Front Brake Leavers, are totally different.
Cheers BJ

Evidently no-one has been bothered by the difference.

Yep. If you think about it, the brake lever is designed so that you can more easily modulate pressure according to speed and road conditions. The clutch lever is designed for sharper engagement/disengagement, since you don't need to modulate clutch engagement so much.
