omg......these things are amazing , finally recived them and the changed the look of the bike so much! my riding postion is comfrtable now and  wind resistance is also better cause of the body position on the bike. im so glad i didnt get clip ons! the install was a breeze too, it took about 45 mins and no headaches!

thanks for the advice guys!

+1  These bars put the sport in the GS.  I rode on stock bars for about 3 grueling weeks.  The sm2's satisfied me right off the bat.  They changed the ride for the better.  I was contemplating getting rid of the GS before I got the bars.  After I installed them, I fell in love with my bike.  She's a keeper.

well, you should have tried the source-suburban-machinery.com

Love mine too. Way better than the stockers or clubman bars. 

i like the clip-ons betters for the f!!!!!!!!! the 37mm clip-ons for the older cbr's fit perfect and you don't even need to turn the front brake at all!!!!!!!!!!! just a FYI

how about to instruct others that have no ideas what you are all talking about, get some before and after pictures overhead and side-view (with rider on bike) so we can "SEE" the differences.. Thanks

too expensive coming directly from the course.

I mean source.  I just woke up, and I don't wanna get out of bed.

I think he's asking for pics of the older CBR clipons chefod put on.  I could be wrong.

not likely-I read it the same way. Lets see the clip ons from an older cbr...

My laptop is about 10 inches from my head...  Make for great sleeping music.

you're obviously surfing the net too....perv.

 

um well i looked at clip ons and for the ease of instal and lack of complications, they jus  bolt on in the stock place i went with the sm2s either or its your choice i love the bars and they and the clip ons are about the same price....from every thing i read and heard their are complications with clip ons nothing with these bars.

Those are known as kiddie bars     senior citizens require bar risers instead so they can still walk erect when they get off the bike.
