    Ok so I'm thinking its to do with lever positions probably but sometimes on my new blade when I pull the front brake lever I twist the throttle at the same time it's never happened on any other bike but can't work out why it's happening ???

    I put it down to the textile gloves I was wearing,never come close to it with my Knox leather ones.

    One of the pros of fitting shorty levers.

    Use only two fingers for braking and the rest of your hand for proper throttle grip.

    Ok cheers might have to invest in some asv's.. Never had short levers on my other bikes and didn't do it so didn't think of that.
