hi everybody, i really want to get clip ons, but most new ones like vortex and what not cost $100 if not more!   anyway, i managed to find some clip ons off of a fzr 600 but they are 38 mm.  can anyone think of a way to make these fit onto the 37mm stock forks of our beloved gs?

....buy the 38 mm forks....modify the triples....get a  custom axle and spacers....slap on a home-made front fender.... ...

Get a 1/2 mm strip of metal and jam it in there...  Maybe that wouldn't be safe...   

you could always just buy some 37mm ones...  I have a set of cheapo ones you can have for 20 bucks.

I ran those exact clip ons for a bit, they worked fine for me with a very little bit of rubber on the inside.  1mm isn't much of a difference, but something was necessary.  If that_guy is parting with them, pick em up, thats the easiest route.  Unless you want the Vortec set for $300+. 

mine are 37mm black.  i think there is a pic on here somewhere actually if you search my posts.  I have the vortex ones because they came with my bike and I love them.  I mean a clip ons a clip on but the 3 allen clamp seems alot more secure than a one bolt setup or something of the sort.  But hey for 20 bucks you could hae something to try out and see if you like em..



here they are actually

i will have to drop the forks a bit to mount them won't i?  well i sent you a pm ...

I did that to mount mine, as the clip-ons are about 37.8mm. Used a .5mm strip of aluminium as a shim. 

or you could sell those and buy my 37mm race clipons     

 not sure, what would be the best clip ons for a titan fairing kit

Only if you deliver them in person

If I remember correctly Airtech says to use "clubman" style bars.  BikeMaster makes a set that are really inexpensive. 

bikemaster clubman bars don't go on just right, i know because i have them!  the middle bend in them is not enough to to clear the upper triple and u will hve to turn them upside down basically. its hard to explain, but try some other ones, the bikemaster ones aren't quit ethe right size for the desired look.
