If you put enough fork above the triple it will drop your front end enough to mess up the handling and cornering clearance unless you use longer forks. |

I have to put the forks up about 1.5" to get it to clamp correctly. I could go with XB triples but thats a whole other issue. I could drop there rear a little. My last bike, 03 R1 I lowered 2" front and rear and it handled just fine. I would rather not lower it any, but to get the XB wheels, i have to just a bit. thanks for the pics all. I have been out measuring tonight and i will need a min of a 1.5" spacer for the handlebars, but so far I have only found a 1" or something like the 2" adjustable ROX spacers.... or clip-ons.... |

I have an S2 upper coming that i was going to use with either clipons or thinking or drilling 2 holes in it and bolting on a set of handlebar mounts. This will allow me to made a spacer and bolt them on at the correct height i need to clear the forks. |

not exactly the clip-on you're talking about but it is a type of "clip-on" |
