All recent USD GSXR forks use 50mm clipons... With the magnet, yep, it's quite often a bit unsightly, partly because the sensor most folks have used is big. It's much easier to hide stuff like this on the rear wheel, on the inside of the swingarm- that's where mine is and it's only visible if you look through the wheel, and even then not too blatant. (well, that's a lie, it's cabletied on but if I'd actually bothered to fit it right it wouldn't be!)

The Veypor pickup is very small, that's why I chose it over the usual suspects, it's a bit more expensive (?40) but works well and it's easier to hide.
