Re: HoHey upper Vs FTI fork extenders

I went with the ho-hey triple for back reasons, instead of dirtbars. They made a reall big difference and look sweet! also most people don't notice it and i like keeping **** on the DL. they also arrived 2 days after i ordered them.

Re: HoHey upper Vs FTI fork extenders

Any one ever swap out a rc51 upper tripple for a sick flat Tag metal Dirt bar set up?


say a 954 front end?

Re: HoHey upper Vs FTI fork extenders

well i knew id get alot of hohey or noway . . .

I was just wondering if anyone ran the extenders. i didnt want to flip the clip-ops because i want to run some 0 degree clip-ons.

I know alot of people have had issues with fti but just as many have had good expirences so im not gunna knock off a place until i do it myself.



why would i have clearance issue with the hohey and full fairings? wouldn't it only be slightly taller

Re: HoHey upper Vs FTI fork extenders

Each system will result in a different set-up. It depends on what you consider the best set-up.

FTI Fork Extenders: You retain all of your stock equipment in the stock position (save the clip-ons) with the bonus of getting more leverage due to raising the clip-ons above stock position.

HoHey Triple: You get a beefed triple on steroids with the option of easily switching back and forth between clip-ons and DB bars. The clip-ons remain in the stock position.


I personally run the HoHey for several reasons. I run DB bars. If I ever want to switch to clip-ons it's super easy. The triple seems to be pretty much bomb proof....at least I haven't broke it yet. It looks cool. HoHey has bent over backwards to help me every time I need it.

Hope my helps.
