I had the Gilles FX if they are the ones you mean?
I personally didn't like them as much as I hoped. They operated perfectly, but just didn't like the feel on the fingers. Plenty of others use and love them.

Whatever you get just make sure it's certified to work with a 2015+ model.
 
I am also looking at levers, and the main dealer has warned me away from all except the HP BMW Motorrad ones, which as much as I like them, are very expensive.
They advised that there can be issues with cruise control etc if they are not chosen?
although I suppose I will get decent money second hand if and when I sell my S1K?
Had ASV levers on my previous Blade and liked them, plus have put some Rizoma goodies on my bike so may continue with that theme.
Would welcome advise from you guys
apologies if jumped on another thread, seemed daft starting another one asking the same thing
 
Alpha racing levers are spot on. Depends what you want though. The issue with the cruise control and other things is because of the clutch switch. It is easy to set up if you have half a brain. Never had any issues with my alpha levers on my race bike
 
Where you buy the alpha from? U.K. Stockist?

Prime Factors are a alpha supplier and forum vendor so you get premier members discount with them.
 
Thank you, I think i do have half a brain so i will have a look

I don't think the Alpha's are adjustable. So if thats your need, Rizoma, Evotech and ASV all make levers to suit the 2015+++

alpha Racing

I have alpha Racing levers on my track bike and they are superb. The clutch lever does lack adjustability but given that the only time I use the clutch is to engage first gear when leaving pit lane this is not an issue at all. That said the shorter span width is better than that of the OEM clutch lever as it sits closer to the clip-on. The brake lever on the other hand is infinitely more adjustable for span width than OEM and feel is fantastic. The other good thing about them is that every single individual part is replaceable making them far more cost effective than most levers should you have a crash.
 
HP Levers

The HP levers are very good although expensive to replace when it all goes wrong.
 
alpha Racing Levers

I paid around ?140 for my alpha Racing levers which I think is excellent value for money.
