It has been about a month and a half since we added the new Kawasaki to the Borne Freestyle family and I have gotten about a good solid month of training on it with the Sick Innovations clip-ons. Previously, I had a Honda F4i with 929 front end and stock Kawasaki clip-ons flipped, so I feel I can give a good comparison between stock flipped.............

Product Review: SI Clip-ons

 

i have them too...and the are freaking awsome!!! thank you ian!!!!

 

are you sponsored by SI, or is this an unbiased review? only reason i ask is cause i just don't like when people are sponsored by the company and then give a review on the product.
it seems like it would be hard to give an unbiased review on a product you got for free.
they do look sick though(no pun intended), i just heard some people say they make it hard to mount controls proper

 

hotness

I got mine in about a week ago and love um. Mine are the side mount 7degree 1" rise i put under the triple on my 03 r6 with the 05 front end> i can't believe how comfortable they are and that the side mount is perfect for my full fairing stunter... Way better the the dirt bars i had on there before. at least now that i have the basics down and am moving on to bigger and better things...LOL

 

Sick Innovations is one of my sponsors, but no matter who it is or what they provide, I will always give a truthful and unbiased opinion and review. I had no issues whatsoever mounting controls and cables. Had plenty of room to mount the left side headlight controls, just opted not to because I'll never use it. My honest opinion is that these clipons are beneficial. Only issue I had, was to adjust to the width of the bars during standup footbrake circles. I decided to keep them wide for stoppie control and had to adjust in another area. I used to run flipped 636 clipons and in my opinion these have helped out. Take it how you will.

 

I have ties with sickinnovations if you wanna call it that.

I here poeple always saying your sponsored by them so that makes the review biased. just my opinion, but If i was sponsored by a company for a product and it sucked, or i didnt like it, I either wouldnt be sponsored by them or i at least wouldnt run that part. I wouldnt want to be uncomfortable. What good is a free part if it sucks?

 

great review IMO...we need more good reviews like this on here

 

i do believe this review was based on your honest opinion, hell i have no reason to believe otherwise since you've always been an asset to the stunt community. just sayin some might question it.
no disrespect intended.

your products are the best anywhere. i have many of them. again, no disrespect. i have the lsl's and am looking for something else in the future, so i may have to try the side mounts out soon, when finances allow

 

Thanks! Good to hear. Actually this is just the beginning. Going to be doing a lot more R&D and reviews for SI, HoHey, Scorpion, and Naarden. These companies really strive to make the best product they can and are always looking for imperfections to correct.


None taken, appreciate the words.

 

i'm sold.
