Re: need some help with vortex clip ons

loosen the upper and lower triples and you'll get about 6 more inches.... just like eXtenze.

sorry now i can see a littel better.... u dont want them that close... they were perfect where they were! when ur in a wheelie they are closer to you and spread out so that u have more control over them!!!!! you will see once u get used to it a little more! just put them where u want i guess u will want to be comfy in a wheelie tho

oh god!


dude, just turn the bars out where they are comfortable and rock it like that. If you want dirt bike bars, then put them on and get comfortable with that. you cant get any more height out of what you have unless you flip the clipons and you might not like that....

Re: need some help with vortex clip ons

What are you wanting comfort in?

Street riding? Racing? Or wheelies?

If its wheelies, turn them out tell they are close to straight, and GO RIDE!



When your in a wheelie, the bars will be very close to your chest, and you wont want them any higher or farther back.

<<<<< look where my handle bars are in a wheelie, they are in my face.. If they were any higher my hands would be above my head on sit downs..
And if they were any farther back, my hands would be down by my waist on stand ups!
