They look rounded to me... but I dont like sharp edges.... looks like sunline may be it

I rode a bike with the sunlines, although far better than ASV, they still don't feel as good as the oem levers do, I've kinda decided just to buy stock in Motion Pro and keeping on buying oem replicas.

I wish MSR would make the EZ pull in an unbreakable lever. That was the best feeling lever I ever owned unfortunately they are $50 a pop and you can only buy the lever separately. I kept busting the perches which meant another 50 and broke a perch 3weeks in a row.....$$$$

Wait so a stock 2011 KX450F only has ~9 HP more than a 2013 KX250F? :confused:

Depends on the dyno etc. Motocross Action:
"The dyno curves on both the 2010 and 2011 KX450Fs are very similar—where they differ is that the 2010 bike is much stronger off idle (from 5000 rpm to 7000 rpm) and a little stronger on top (from 9000 rpm to 10,500 rpm).

So where does the 2011 bike shine? It would be easy to say that the 2011 KX450F is stronger than its 2010 brother through the meat of the powerband (7000 rpm to 10,000 rpm). And, if you looked at peak horsepower, you might believe it. The 2011 KX450F’s peak power is 54.17 horsepower at 8600 rpm. This is two-tenths of a horsepower better than the 2010 model at peak (53.90). When you look at power output at 1000 rpm increments across the midrange, the 2011 KX450F makes more horsepower than the 2010 model at 7000 rpm, less horsepower at 8000 rpm, more horsepower at 9000 rpm and less horsepower at 10,000. The peak horsepower of both bikes is tucked into the 8000 to 9000 rpm window.

What does it all mean? The 2011 is mellow off the bottom and a little stronger from low-to-mid, while the 2010 is stronger off the bottom and better on top. But—and this is a big but—the only thing you’ll notice in the saddle is the difference in thrust off idle. "
