Here is what happened. He shipped both levers about 5 days after I paid for the auction. I waited about 25 days before I contacted him. In the mean time, he provided a tracking number that doesn't work - I thought oh well, just wait for the levers - I am sure it will come. So, after 25+ days - no lever!! After a few emails, he contacted me back and saying that the package stuck in somewhere in China! He started blamed the USA custom (about how difficult it is to do business with US). So he told me that he will express ship (3-5 days) one lever through and lower the custom amount to get it here. I said to him, just do it. 10 days passed by, the lever finally shipped. I email him immediately and saying I got the one lever, and please send the other one asap. 3 days has passed, finally an email saying that he will ship the other express! 10 days later, arrived - wrong color! Another 3 days passed, finally got the right lever at 56st days. F-him. He can kiss my ass! Buy it from anyone else, just don't buy it from him. Watch out, he change his ebay account a few times, he is a poor ebayer.
The front brake only locked up on someone because they hadn't filed it down. If you put the lever on how it comes it will be pressing on the front brake already. If you take the time to file it down you'll be set.
Mine came from someone named Motogp888 and I was pretty pleased. Shipping was pretty quick considering they came from Hong Kong, about a week and a half, maybe 2 weeks.
irule - yikes, that does sound like a huge pita! Thanks for the clarification!

i think these were firedragonbros on ebay really cheap, but good quality.
He just got another positive from a set of buell levers...
All I can say is good luck. I just didn't have a good experience and I am going to tell anyone who will listen.
