Don't know on the things but you have old style helibars my friend, congrats on that one!!!!

 

Those mounts are a bitch to get off. They were on my Bandit when I bought it too. I used a blowdryer to heat the glue up real good and used a knife to get one edge lifting up and they slowly peeled off. Be very careful and you won't scratch your windscreen.

"Can the system be moved or permanently removed?
Yes... base units (the part attached to the vehicle) are tape mounted and can be removed. It is best to do this when they are warm. Park in the sun or lightly preheat them with a hairdryer. When the bases are warm, peel them off by starting at a corner. If you must use a tool to start peeling an edged, use a smooth edged tool and be careful not to scratch the vehicle. Replacement bases are available for remounting or repositioning and are listed in the Parts and Accessories link of the particular model page. The tape is applied here at the factory using a special tape enhancer and is sold only as a taped base set."

 

How about mine? Same?

 

Yeah, look like Heli's, I mounted mine under the triples because I have gsxr forks and do track days so i wasn't looking for extra rise.

 

I was curious if they were the "old" style or the "new" style. How can they be told apart?

 

old here's the new style.

Those look pretty stout compared to the old version clamp. Wonder if that is why they changed.
