You can find them for the older models on Oberon's own website, but I didn't find them in chrome.  They offer Black, Blue, Gold, Red, Silver and Titanium finish.

I saw that they listed the '04 - '06 with the hydraulic setup but didn't see any listing for the '10 -'13 model year CVO's. I sent them a request for fitment information and they in turn asked me for some clear photos of my existing levers and mounts so that they could advise me which of their levers would be correct.

Unfortunately for me my bike is at the dealership right now for an unrelated repair. As soon as I get the bike back, or as soon as I can get to the dealer to take the photos I'll do as they requested.

I may find out that the levers listed for another model will fit.

Update: My bike is in the shop. A second local dealer is looking at the clutch. If nothing is found "wrong", I suppose I'll replace the clutch with what I mentioned in a previous post. There is no Barnett +1 for my bike. I only wish I could find a definitive answer to, "WILL THIS FIX THE FEEL"?

Any update, FB?

Drag just released a never lever as well  Called a PSR Adjustable levers .. Just saw this in the new products show case

  http://www.psr-usa.com/lever-for-harley/439-journey-levers-for-harley.html

For those interested in these adjustable levers for pre-2014 hydraulic clutch setups, was advised by this company they are working on what they refer to as their "CVO" levers and should introduce them in a couple of months.

The trouble with these adjustable levers is that on a Harley, they are so fugly!

Just put one on the 09 SERG. Jury is still out. Looks and functions ok. Its just lighter and feels a little different. Just need to ride it some.

     Ah yes, the Harley conundrum raises its head again.  What to do, go with better function, or stick with what looks good (style).  We all know which choice Harley itself has made over the past several decades.

I'm guessing the people who have been complaining loudly and often about the engagement point, and the ones with small hands and a short reach, will probably decide function is more important, at least in this particular case.  Eventually someone will come out with parts styled for the Harley market, now that the size of the market has been enlarged by Harley adding hydraulic clutches to the standard models as well as the CVO's.  It's a shame that Harley itself can't be counted on to fix a problem they and they alone created, so that the customers don't have to search for aftermarket solutions.  The aftermarket needs to send thanks to the fearless leadership of Harley over the past thirty years for creating the need for their aftermarket solutions.  Just think how many companies wouldn't exist right now if Harley had done a decent job itself.

What did you buy?  Got a pic to post?

Oberon has been extremely responsive to my questions regarding the adjustable levers. I sent them some photos they requested and supplied them with the HD part numbers for cross referencing. They forwarded my contact info to a US distributor of their levers and so far this is where I stand in my endeavor to add a set of adjustable levers to my 11.5 FLHTCUSE6..

an excerpt from the email I received from the distributor:

"We have Oberon adjustable levers to fit more than 700 different Harley models between 1996 and 2016.  The exception are six low production CVO models built between 2010 and 2012 that seem to use a clutch lever that is at least somewhat different than all the others, unfortunately your 2011 FLHTCUSE6 is likely one of those six."

The email also goes on to say:

"I am happy to work with you to see if we can come up with a workable solution.  please telephone me and we can discuss some ideas."

Monday I'll be reaching out to them to see what ideas they may have in mind.

Any updates on the Adjustable levers, looking at PSR, Hog Leverage, and Oberon.
thanks Smkblwr

I don't believe I would pay the money again to buy one. Although I'm still using it.

After several emails back and forth between myself and Oberon, it seems if you have a 2010 to 2012 model you're likely out of luck...
They recommended that I change out the controls to the ones used on the VROD to ensure fitment. I looked into it but was unable to answer my own questions regarding the fluid flow, capacity and compatibility with with the calipers and such.... I decided it wasn't worth the effort to me.
I've gotten used to the engagement point by now so I think I'll just leave it alone since the stock setup has worked fine for the past 5 years. As they say "if it ain't broke don't fix it".

[BigLew]

I guess since I hate long explanations I will take a stab at it. Mine works as advertised on the 09. And has quite a few adjustments it just feels different if that makes sense. Its a shorter, lighter more curved lever kind of like an old dirt bike. So it feels different and it vibrates more. Jury is still out as to if it will stay on the bike or not. Just riding and enjoying the NC weather except for all the green pollen.

Thank for the reply's, gents. I just can't get used to it so far out ( or don't want to), shorts fingers.  just put the VPC and new clutch plates in and its alot stiffer when its wound up hahaha, reminds me of the race clutch in my old road king. guess I will just have to get a finger stretcher hahaha.
thanks Smkblwr
