 |

All..
The falco came with a straight bar conversion, but this fouled on the fairing so that has been cut to suit. Id like to fit an original screen so I need some clip ons to fit 53mm forks.
Plenty of options on ebay from £25-£250 But I'd rather not buy so cheap that they come loose (or worse) while in use. Any recommendations? ____________________ Now: A100, GT250A, XJ598, FZ750

Renthal would be my first and only choice, really:
https://www.renthal.com/road/clipons
They do 53mm clip ons for £179 per pair.
I thought they were pricey, but then I looked at the Aprilia parts prices. Left ones, expensive but not too bad. Right one? REALLY expensive, and both out of stock. Not to mention all the other accessory parts you'd need to buy. I don't think I need to give you my advice on this, which is to buy the Renthal ones!

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another. |

Yep, same (Showa) forks I believe. ____________________ Now: A100, GT250A, XJ598, FZ750

Why would the RHS one be almost twice the price of the LHS?  |
