Obviously they are not the same quality as OEM and high end aftermarket items, there is some play and I am sure they are weaker than the big $$$ ones, but in the end of the day they still work just fine.

I have Pazzo shorty's on the Buell, and cheapo Ebay ones on the SV.

Love the feel of the Pazzo's and they match the frame, the cheapo ones are pretty much the same as stock, but cheaper and with a fake cf finish.

These cheapos have gotten good reviews on another forum. He has different colors, and short vs long:

I dig my pazzos, wish I'd bought both sets though so I could have a short clutch and long brake

They are on the Buell. Stockers just didn't have a good feel.
