Adjustable clip-ons? - SV650.org

Gremlin · 04-10-11, 01:36 PM

Hi guy's

I'm going to buy these http://www.discovolantemoto.co.uk/ha.../prod_247.html, for my curvy 's', they have 72mm of handle bar lift so i'm getting some sv650 naked cobra brake lines http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SUZUKI-SV6...t_2732wt_1?165 to allow for this. I've read good reviews on this forum about the brake lines but has anyone used the clip-ons?
I'm servicing my calipers at the same time and saw a naked clutch cable for £9.95 on wemoto, should I get it or will my current one be long enough with some re-routing? At first glance the current oem one looks like it will be to short.

Not these ones, but I've got some Gilles adjustable ones, which are much better than the standard OEM clip ons.

What have you got, curvy or pointy?

Clutch cable might work, mine did without re routing it, as did the throttle cables.

Don't buy either until you've fitted the clip ons and mucked around with the bar position. It'll save you buying new cables if you don't need to.

Watch out for the bars fouling the fairing or hitting he tank, if you've got a curvy, its an MOT failure
