Title: i need some 411 on clip ons
Post by: frankieG on July 20, 2007, 07:46:15 PM
here is the deal, i have the 89 triple and clip ons set up on my 2004.  one of the bars are bent and the old school mounts are really looking dated.  so i have found 3 types of alum clips on flea bay(vortex, woodcraft and 99 buck no name) and have a few questions


1. does anyone have any of those clips listed above
2. which is best/easiest to set up
3. can you put bar ends on them
4. does it matter which triple i have on the bike the 89 or the 04

thanks in advance for the advise.

the bars them selves should be easy to replace, as far as the mounts looking spent... Why? Do they need some paint? I love my 89 clipons and wouldnt trade em for anyting  :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:
