Do you know what size the forks are on that bike? The gs forks are 37mm

[bobbyg1243]

37mm also, the only difference i beleive is that these ones dont have a clamp, they look like the bolt on from the top. im not too sure though.

[bucks1605]

It does look like that, you could probably have a hole drilled and tapped to make those work.

It would be very difficult to get those to work.There's no where to bolt them down.The GS uses a top mount on top of the triple clamp.When or if you could turn they'd hit the tank.

[bucks1605]

Ben's right, you should probably go with something designed for the gs.

Such as these

Or some regular clip ons for 37mm forks

buy a 89 triple...i think some are listed for sale here, and you can have any clip ons you like.  i have it on my gsf and love it.
