I've recently seen the light and got hold of one of the last 955i Tigers and love it.
However I really miss the span adjusters of my last bike, can anyone confirm of the levers are the same as the 97-03 Daytonas as I can easily source after market levers with span adjusters for them but not as easily for the Tiger.
Thanks

I bought some of these( item number on ebay170661337886)for my 885i tiger.Do not be put off by the price as they are really good quality.

Thanks Alan, just what I was looking for and similar if not identical to the ones a mate just got for a similar price.
When I had to get a replacement brake lever for the other halfs Versys I got a 'generic' one and tried it (first) on the Girly... just what I needed. So it's likely there's plenty of options for your right hand.
Haven't done the clutch side, but it's on the 'some-time' list
Took a while to get things across to the seller as I referred to the bike as a Tiger 955i, to which they said they don't fit, they only fit the Tiger EFI bike produced between 99-2006 :roll:
The new levers arrived yesterday and I have to say they seem to be really good quality and are well packaged

I got a set very similar, if not identical to these and I cannot get them to fit under my factory hand guards.
Did you manage to get them on?
I don't have the standard guards on my Tiger, I have the endurance type ones
Buyer beware for fitment. I ordered a set which originated from China (ebay auction which looks like the ones in the above picture). Shipped to my door within 10 days and the quality of the milling looks good. I started with my brake lever first and had no fitment problem. Off and on within minutes.
When I moved to install the clutch however I had to do some "refinement" to have the lever fit properly. (1) The hole for the shoulder bolt was at 10mm while the brake lever was at 8mm. Fortunately the OE brake lever had a bronze bushing so I pressed it out; drilled the new lever; and pressed the bushing in.Pivot solved.(2) The thickness of the lever was thinner than the OE lever. A few stainless washer shimmed it up to where it was satisfactory to where the lever wont walk up and down the shoulder bolt.(3) The material around the shoulder bolt area (boss) was too thick when fitted into the pocket to where the lever is mounted. Some aluminum removal around the area kept it from binding. All in all I am glad I went with adjustable levers. My goal was attained to custom tune my hand fit upon the levers while riding. I would weigh other brands before committing to these, however it could have been a mis-ship on the clutch lever. Doubtful though since the dimensions line up to exercise the cable.
Food for thought for those considering replacements. Sorry... I did not take any picts on this mod.
Almost forgot....with my levers I ordered a set of the enduro hand guards. I had to slightly space the guards at the attachment point to the aluminum block that bolts to the bars (more for clutch lever clearance than brake lever clearance). Glad I did the new guards too. In my climate, I needed the air flow, they look cleaner, and I don't mind the added protection.
Just fitted some Pazzo levers (straight swap) and some Acerbis hand guards, so far so good.
Yes I use Pazzo levers as well good bits of kit cheers Spud :wink:

I ordered them also and am having the same problem with them fitting under the handguard. Did you sort it out?
I ordered a set of the2wheels levers. Long version in blue :-)
They fit perfectly without any modification. Real quality! I love them.
I think you would have to modify the OEM mouse ears,
but I have Triumph 1050 hand guards and everything worked and looked fine!
