I'm still using SV ones... It's HEL so they're always overlong anyway

And can you use Stock SV for a GXSR front end (Pointy or Curvy)?

No idea, but I'd assume so. Replacement cycle on OEM rubber lines is 4 years though, so if you have a curvy you're overdue anyway

Oh, wait, does the pointy have a one-down-one-across setup? If it does, it might have problems with the mudguard clearance. Don't think it will though.

Ok lads here it is.

The clipons are off (I believe) a Ducati 750SS circa 1995. I'll try and find out exactly what years etc. If anyone else does find out then please post up. A couple of pics below to show what they look like.

Nothing fancy but very functional as I said as you can move them up, down, towards/away from rider. List price new is £46.64 + Gordon Browns cut but I didn't pay that much for the two pairs I've got

.

Forgot to check if that price includes the bolts as well but shouldn't cost much anyways if it doesn't.

Cheers
Ben

Looks like theyre different to yours so I'm assuming they only come from certain years!

What forks have you settled for to do the conversion? ie are you going for radial or conventional?

If conventional, are you using planning on using SRAD yokes?
