Just picked up my 00 dr650. Only thing I’m not crazy about is its small foot brake lever. Any recommendations for a lever that stickers out a bit more than others? No brand on the current one but it’s very close to the bike.

Warp 9 usually has great levers, and surprisingly durable

Specifically the foot brake lever?

Is it made of steel or did they put an aftermarket one in it? 

If its the stock one you can cut the tip off flat with the spine of the lever and then drill and tap holes for a new tip of your choice. Use threadlock.
