Which clip ons for gixxer front end? - SV650.org

02-08-06, 06:45 PM

Got the gsxr forks on the front of my k4 now all is fine ish.

At present i have the stock 04 gsxr clip ons when i turn the bars full lock left and right my knuckles are very close to the top fairing.

Is there an alternative that gives me a bit more clearance without spending mega bucks on harris clip ons?

ones from a tl s 1000 maybe?

Yup, TLS (not TLR) are higher and will fit to your forks, they're a wee bit more sloped is the only thing. That's what I ended up using on mine...

hey northwind, iv been considering the tl bars on my gsxr front cause they are supposed to be a lil higher, was the increase in comfort worth the money spent?

I didn't notice any comfort difference, it was more because my throttle cables and heated grip wiring fouled the fairing

Still, money spent... They cost me £30, and the GSXR ones sold for £20.

I did, old broken wrist injury played up in the weeks of having the gsxr ones on, fine with the TLS one (big up 21QUEST
