Default Clip ons - 'S' advice needed - LSL users.

I need to be a bit more upright / relaxed position on the bars.

I need some advise please on what others have used, how they feel, etc.

i've read the post about the below but not happy about the mod for th brake fluid pot.

Accossato risers
http://www.intobikes.co.uk/products/...-Rise-Clip-Ons

i'm not sure how much of a difference there is on the rise of the std match and the tour

LSL match
http://www.intobikes.co.uk/products/...5?mn=113&pt=84

LSL tour match
http://www.bikermart.co.uk/proddetail.asp?prod=158-391

Helibars
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1708030570...9#ht_500wt_922

is there any i'm missing any?
what input do other people have that have tried to pick the bars up?

i don't want a full bar conversion thanks btw, just a bit more rise on the bars and maybe some less angle.
thanks

Gilles Vario bars are another option which give you more flexibility and adjustment compared to your current choices

You can get different height risers and then play around with the forward or rearward pitch, and also the bar angle is adjustable

More expensive than your choices, but they do appear on EBAY, you'll need to get the correct fork clamp size for your forks, but these are available to order through the importer

i thought the LSL were a bit OTT price wise but those gilles are scary by the time you add up all the items.

Why not? The fairing fits the bike and the 'bars, if the bars are in a different place, other parts of bike may need to be altered to allow that.

if the reach is ok but you just want a bit more hight then LSL or
Accossato will do. gillies are fantastic but pricey.

It is not that the fluid pot need moving to fit.
It's the fact the bars aren't designed to mount the pot properly and you need to bodge it.

that's the price you pay if you want to use aftermarket stuff on your bike. it's not a bodge if it's done properly and fits it's only a bodge when it falls apart after a few weeks.
