Damn pulling the top tree was way easier than I thought. I figured it would expose bearings and shit and the bottom tree would would fall out aswell. Thanks for the video Brian! Always learning from you.

Hey Bryan, i have a tip for mounting the top clamp. I saw you had to push hard and smash it with the palm of your hands. Perhaps not good for the threads on the steering stem. If you stand on front of the bike, you can push your shin against the front wheel. Push just a little bit and the left and right fork will align with the steering stem. With just minor effort the top clamp just falls in position.
@sportbiketrackgear4 жыл бұрын
The top clamp is much softer than the threads on the steering stem. I have done this 1,000 times, zero issues. - Van

Why not remove the locating tab on the button pods. Makes changing out bars in the event of an off, a lot easier.
@sportbiketrackgear6 жыл бұрын
I did not do this because you should not do this on a bike with the start / stop switch pod that is part of the throttle assembly like the stock throttle on this GSXR 1000. If you cut the tab off on the throttle they will end up rotating on the tube which is not great. If you have a throttle like the Motion Pro REV2 that does not have a locating tab that clamps on the bar there is no need to drill. If I were not doing this as an install video I would (on my own bike) grind off the tab on the clutch side switch pod and not drill the bar. On the throttle side I would still drill a hole if I was running a stock throttle with an integrated switch pod. All that said if the bars do not need to be drilled it makes replacing the bar easier to do for sure. Thanks for contributing! - Brian Van

This bike is a tough one to install risers on without running into clearance issues. I would recommend using the measurement chart for riser clip ons in this link: www.sportbiketrackgear.com/product_images/product_pdf/Woodcraft-How-To-Measure-for-Riser-Clip-on.pdf If you decide to install a set on your bike this is a project, not some super easy direct fit bolt on. We offer the Apex Adjustable Riser Clips Ons that have adjustable rise. With these you can install them and work to get the maximum rise before running into clearance issues. Once again this is not a direct fit part, patience and creativity are required. www.sportbiketrackgear.com/apex-3-adjustable-riser-clip-ons/ - Brian Van

For the GSXR750 you will need 50mm clip ons. I would go with the 7 degree kit, this is the most natural angle IMO and the most commonly used. Installing these on the 750 you should not have any issues with the windscreen or bodywork. - Van

If you remove the plug on the end of the clip on tube you will find a hollow tube. If you want to use a lever protector there are several styles available which will install into the hollow end of the bar.
