Aftermarket Clip-Ons
I've been chasing some different clip on bars for the TRX...from what i've seen the Harris ones are quite expensive online.
The idea being i get something a little longer (for a wider reach) and perhaps with more downturn angle on them. I'm a taller rider and find the TRX a bit squashy so this may help. Anyone know where i could get a set for standard (41mm) forks in Australia for a decent price?

Re: Aftermarket Clip-Ons
Raceproducts make them or try other bikes with 41mm forks (early zx6 or cbr6 IIRC)

Re: Aftermarket Clip-Ons
I've got a set of alloy adjustables in the shed somewhere. I'll dig them out if your keen.
If everything seems under control
your just not going fast enough.

Re: Aftermarket Clip-Ons
Alternatively try flipping over the clip on mounts from left to right/right to left fora slightly more relaxed position. Think it cants the bars out a bit as well as flatter. Not done it myself but others have. think theres a few threads on here with pics.

Re: Aftermarket Clip-Ons
I tried it but didn't like the angle of the bars in the end and swapped them back.

Re: Aftermarket Clip-Ons
Thanks guys.
I've tried flipping the bars, i did raise them up but it didnt feel right. I've also got an ABM billet top triple wich i've been running superbike flat bars on but looks a bit dicky. I dont mind the downswept sports position, i'd just like to get a wider spacing between my hands. I guess clip-ons with a similar angle (to clear the fairing) but ones that are actually longer.
Mincehead, those PPMP bars look pretty nice, although were more $$$ than expected, but the quality and design looks to make up for it.
Kev, yes i would be keen, what sort of adjustment do they have?
Cheers,
Scott.
