On another note.. You have any problem with those adapters in the background? Ive got a set on my truck and one of them squeaks like a ************

I was using them to run factory 20's on an 04' superduty... then upgraded to an 07' that came w/ factory 20's... so now they're for sale.
plus the clip-on itself is stainless tubing... so not too worried about it breaking.

thanks and thanks...
seriously... I have this exact same setup on my stunter besides the scotts, and I've tossed the thing around for a couple wkends w/ out any problems....
so far... durability and handling of db bars w/ look and feel of clip-ons.... and I'm an ANTI-dirt bar guy (always have been).
I love it... would reccomend it to anyone.
easy pullin in/out of hc.... stoppies w/ no damper and no wobble... circles are cake to control....
until I snap a bar in a wheelie i'm sold on this setup

All I did was grab a tattoo needle bar... (the piece of metal with the eye loop that you solder needles to the other end...) got it real hot over a candle.... and then pushed it through the kill switch on either side and then all the way through the middle piece iside there and then pushed a heavy duty safety pin through and you can't accidentally or on purpose turn the kill switch off if you tried.
I saw kyle woods and tim barnes do a stadium show with shockey here in KC, or topeka rather... and Tim told a story about how he kicked the kill switch goin ito a 50/50 and landed with the bar end up his ***! true story.....He said it fucked him up for a week or so!!! LMAO So Kyle said his nickname was "Tim kickflip the killswitch Barnes" from now on.... LOL
That was enough to scare me, so I went home and did the saftey pin thing to my 900RR and every bike I've owned since! LOL
Now on topic.... I have heard some people say that slappin an R1 throttle on is better on the k6-600 GSX-Rs..... I have thought about trying it and seein what the fuss is all about.....

Re: CBR1000RR Throttle tube/cables on F4i
So I did this mod and had the same problem as Nags, BUT im a lazy *** and only swapped out the cable that didnt reach, so I have 1 from the f4i and 1 from the 1000rr. I started the bike, it started fine, I let it warm up and if I crack the throttle quick, it boggs, and after riding it when I turn it off it wont start right back up, but if I let it cool down it starts back up fine. I also did the clean air mod.
Could the fact that I didnt change bout cables be causing these problems? If not you guys have any ideas what could be causing these problems????

90% of the time if your bike won't start when its hot, you just need new plugs.
...and guy you don't need to start two threads within a minute of each other bout the same thing.

I was just about to say do that exact thing b/c that's exactly what I did. I love the 1000RR housing b/c it's metal and not plastic. But instead of running the ignition setup from the 1000RR, I rewired the start side to a CR450F kill switch. Works AWESOME!!!

Just drilled the hole in the bar for the little nubs. Waiting on new throttle cables coz mine are **** and need something to weight the bars down and then Ima put this bitch on. :YEAH Looks a lot cleaner than stock. I wanted to get the kill switch closer to the throttle but I was a little off w my measurements. Oh well.
