f4i stock clip-ons or dirt bars

i pushed out the stock clip-ons so there pretty much straight thinking this would make it easier on my wrists and forearms. it helps a little but my wrists are still getting sore im thinking about getting some dirt bars would this help my poor wrists? if so is the dirt bar conversion kit on hia the way to go?

Like night and day. I love the DB bars, but need to get a new damper



I have since removed the large mirror and put the small one one under the bars

dude get some vortex or something....your arms and hands take some time getting used to the new position but the gain in control over the bike is 10 fold

Re: f4i stock clip-ons or dirt bars

f4i clips can definatley be switched and flipped after some grinding, I had mine like this for about month.

If you got the dought I would get some aftermarkets. I recently got some votrex i angle up and they are like a dream compared to the f4i flipped and switched.

With the f4i F/Sed it puts the bars lower, and the upward angle is more step than say the votrex 7 degree angled up.

just my
