Posting some before/after pics of my stock clip ons after Thrux-ton-up did me a huge favor and flipeed them. I've owned sportbikes before - but the stock angle of the Thrux's clip ons were pinching a nerve in my right wrist. Of course, riding with Thrux-ton-up and Scott03Bonnie - you get to see all the cool mods first hand.

Hmmm..... You mean the front wheel didn't fall off?! Hmmmm.... Hows the steering with the lowered forks?

It did on the way home, but I was paying attention so I figured out how to put it back on.

Steering is quicker. Not too much, but noticable. Bike is definitely a pleasure to ride even more now. I've been keepin the silver bullet parked and riding the Thruxton this week.

I recently did this mod as well, and the difference is amazing. who knew that a silly inch or so would make such a change.

The handling seems to be a tad quicker,
Well worth the effort imho.
