Great idea.  How will the plug secure into the tree?

So I've been trying to finalize the design for these oem offset clamps. This design offers "offset adjustment" so it can be 60mm or 45mm. I will probably go ahead and make a 50mm plug as well. That way you can use it on all the CB750's, the CB550, CB500 CB450 and CB350. Those 3 offsets pretty much cover everything. It will also allow you to play around with your offset and see what suits your ridding style.

Thats the way to do it.... ;)  Excellent...

They make similar ones for sport bikes but not to these offsets.

Devin,

My 750K2 build is going to incorporate a 2008 CBR600RR Front End.  Is there any chance you can make me a set of triples with stock (for 750) offset?  If so, please PM me, Devin.

Okay so I've done some figures and to make it adjustable will run cost up to $730 for non adjustable cost will be $599. What would you guys prefer? I'm torn.

Adjustable makes far more sense.... ;)  Is it possible to have different dimension on clamps or are these just to suit one model of fork..?

Adjustable is a cool idea, but it may be cost prohibitive for many members.  As a follow on to Retro's post, are you able to machine triples for other front ends??  I am grafting on a 2008 CBR600RR front end onto my CB750, but I'd prefer to have stock offset triples.

I could do spacers on the clamps but I would rather make it fork specific. I really want to make it adjustable

The CBR will follow.

I'm just going to have to figure out how I can get the cost down on the adjustable. I'll get it to $600. I want it adjustable because that would be really cool and I want it affordable too.

Devin, it is so cool you are focusing on creating products that solve problems, add new features and value to doing upgrades. 

I am in on an adjustable set, $600 is a great target price too.

Adjustable GSXR offset Triple Trees now available for pre-order.

They come with adjustability of 45mm, 50mm, 55mm, and 60mm. I've decided to include all of the offsets with tree so that you can fine tune to fit your particular riding style. Adjustable steer stops are going so save a lot of headache and retro nut to keep the classic look. New stem that will be custom to fit your specific bike.

Cognito Moto hub or stock gsxr wheel can be used.

Many GSXR1000, GSXR750 and GSXR600 fork tube options available.


Please check out the site for more detail. http://bit.ly/1kIrfq2

Waiting to see these for a 2007-2008 CBR600RR.  I see that you already make the hubs so maybe the triples are not far behind!

Waiting to see these for a 2007-2008 CBR600RR.  I see that you already make the hubs so maybe the triples are not far behind!

CBR hub looks pretty slick

Thank you to Micah Tiemann http://www.tiemworkphotography.com/ for snapping these pics while we were in Austin.









But a week prior to getting this bike all buttoned up we find out my wife is pregnant. THE IRONY...

Since I don't need a 2 seater for a while  I'm going to get Cliff to make me up a cowl for it.

Gorgeous bike, Devin.  Congratulations on the baby!
