I keep noticing, when shopping for hand levers for my 09 XB12, that every stops at 2008 in their listings. is there a reason that the 2008 levers won't fit my 2009?
thanks in advance for any insight.

Your 09 R has a ZTL2 caliper and the master cylinder is different than the 03-08's, the clutch levers were all the same.
