Bought my Drz used, these levers came with it but are lose feeling on the bike like it’s got a gap in between the frame and the lever. Think a washer work? I can’t find one thin enough thob

I’d be very careful with anything you do with levers or hand controls. They are critical. A washer may cause something to bind up or stick. It could put you down fast. I actually swapped those out for a set of ASVs. And they’ve been great. Good luck bro.

I just picked up my drz and noticed a little into the throttle it feels like it gets stuck and than breaks this wall and moves freely any idea what it could be

Stay clear of these. They have snapped on me during braking. MZS look cool as fuck, but do NOT buy these cheap aftermarket levers when your life depends on them. Stick to OEM or Zeta! Edit: There are a lot of videos on why you should stick to OEM levers and numerous bike shops have backed this up as well.
