Need a pic. Clip ons below upper tree
« on: March 17, 2009, 12:08:10 PM »
Can you guys post a pic of what clip ons look like when they are mounted below the upper triple tree brace. Also what did you do for headlight ears? How is the headlight mounted?

Oh my aching back!  It hurts just looking at those.  (maybe I'm just getting old or something).

In the bottom pic of Big-Jim's post you can see the adapter that raises the reservoir up off of the bar and onto the Triple tree itself.

So when istalling them below the upper tree, you must use different headlight ears
