Replacement levers, short or regular?

Thinking of replacing the brake and clutch levers (must be bored or something)

Anyone had experience of the short ones or best to stick to regular length?
 
I have installed replacement adjustable levers purchased off Fleabay. I prefer the adjustable ones as the shorty versions have never worked for me. I have had these on several bikes in the past - they work for me and are cheap enough. I would recommend the adjustable ones as they range effectively from a shorty length to a more standard length - best of both worlds really.
 
This may sound a bit silly, but it depends on how much traffic riding you do. If you need to hold the clutch in a lot, a shorty lever could be a pain in the .... fingers.
 
I've had shorties for all my bikes. It's just preference, you won't know till you've tried a set

But it mostly (I would think) depends on how you use them. I'm a 2-finger guy, so I like the short ones.

Short ones for me. First time I've ever tried 'em.
Have to say they suit my short, stubby fingers perfectly.
Great buy off Ebay for £15.75
(A quick tip if you buy any of these. to adjust, push the main lever forward while you click the small adjusting lever.
It feels a lot better and doesn't put strain on the notched cam.)
