Hi intoxxx, nice job!
Did you have to reroute throttle cables, or have any clearance issues with the fairing/tank? Which year VFR are clipons from? I was under impression that there are some clearance issues that need to be resolved with VFR clipons... |

Did mine a couple of years ago w/ VFR bars and did have clearance issues with the fairing. Specifically, interference w/ high/low beam switch on the left and kill switch on the right - THAT'S THE SCARY ONE! I ended up removing about 1/2" of the fairing above and in front of the bars and repainting the front fairing. It is a great improvement though. The seat also needs to replaced cause it sucks.Attachment 26380

I have run vfr bars for several years, 94-97, and have no issues with clearance unless all the way to lock. Then controls touch fairing, but how often do you go that far ? |
