Aftermarket gear shift lever and rear foot brake lever for Gen 3? Anything out there?

[Gen3lover]

I want to upgrade my gear shift lever and rear foot brake lever from the boring aluminum style to something more appealing. I've searched far and wide on the internet and can fine Gen 2 aftermarket levers but nothing for Gen 3.
Any ideas?
I thought of powder coating the stock levers black if nothing can be purchased.

You don't want to buy the entire aftermarket rearsets?

You know, I hadn’t considered that before but I”ll look into it.
I like the current position of the lever and pedal, how much do rear sets change things?

They don't if you don't want them to.
I have yet to see any brand without a stock position setting.
Most adjust up to .75" to 1" up and back, and some will go down a half inch, with 2-3 positions in between.
Some have 2 positions for the ends of the shifter and brake too, for larger or smaller feet.

handful of options if you swap rear sets

Interesting, I always thought rear sets were for racing applications so I never considered them.
Back to the original question - I suppose there is nothing out there to replace just the stock gear shift lever and rear brake pedal with something more appealing so rear sets are my only option it appears.
Good to know that there is a stock position setting. I don't want to change where my foot position is now if I don't have to.

A quick search shows prices range from $95 on Ali Express to $739 for Gilles. I'm not considering the ones on Ali Express but wow, the prices are all over the place.

webike from japan has some nice sets available on their website. some members here have swapped gen 2 vortex rear sets on there gen 3s so that’s another option.

Gen2 Vortex rearsets made after 2012 also adjust down, vs '08-'11 Vortex that do not(yes there is still NOS, new old stock, floating around the internet for sale).

Says they fit 1999-2024, can that be right?

Yes, but ask the guys here that have Vortex on the Gen3 if they needed to change the length of the shift rod, or if you have dual exhaust, if there is any shifter clearance issues, as I recall reading that there were some minor adjustmenr or modification needed on the shifter side.
Otherwise, Gen1, 2, and 3 all use the same frame, so the Voretx rearsets bolt right up.
