Just another clip on job
I came across a set of clip on clamps on this site without bars nor bolts and bar sleeves so I figure since I have the MTS for longer rides I'd play with what I had and make it work. I must say that with 2.5" rise the bike is soo different from the setting with the Rizoma bar like night and day, way more work in order to steer it but way more planted and less wheelie happy IMO.
I just had to move the headlight 3/4" forward to better clear the brake hose and cables otherwise it's a winner, it dips nicely into the corners without the feeling the front end will wash out half as much as I felt it with the upper bar.
Anywho, here's some pics, now I'm working on using the bar clamp space to house a GPS, dayum!, will I ever leave it alone?

Looks Awesome! I was wondering how it would look and work with 2.5" riser clip ons? Are those the Woodcraft ones? BTW you have one of the best looking Streetfighters IMO love that exhaust!

Thank you, the clip ons are Cycle Cat, I purchased the clamps on this site without hardware nor bars @ sleeves, I kinda put them together with odds and ends.

You will love those clip ons. I am very pleased with mine. Cool to see there are clip ons with raisers as well, makes me think I should have waited to get those. Let us know how you like them.
