Fitting different bars - 955i Speed3

[aatkinson]

Hi all

I’m currently in the process of stripping down and rebuilding my ’99 speed triple. I’m considering going for a more café racer look by fitting clip on bars.
I’ve been watching a Daytona T595 top yolk and clip on bars on ebay – anyone know if they would be a direct fit. Any one have any other options I could consider?

Cheers
Alex

hello mate
i have just fitted clip-on to my 03 s3
i looked at triumph ones on e-bay but they were to pricy for me so i fitted some from a jap bike that i found at an autojumble
easy and cheap
only did it last weekend so no pics yet

I will say the that the S3 top clamp & bar risers much more valuable commodity than the Daytona variant.

You really don't need the top yoke if going from bars to clip-ons - just remove the risers and fit the clip-ons anyway.

In fact just noticed you have a 99 S3 aatkinson - in your case the instruments bolt to the triple clamp - the Daytona top clamp does not have that provision!

hi guys

just did a quick search and found this thread
i have an 07 daytona (digital clocks), i want to keep the clipon's for the cafe look but have bought an 02/04 speed triple combined headlamp/clock pod bracket to mount the clocks and lights.

trouble i'm having is when turning left the brake master cylinder fouls the clocks, is there a way round this or do i need a different bracket.
i've been looking on the net and found a single headlight conversion which includes a stand alone clock bracket and also a top yolk conversion for a 1050 triple but is there a triumph part that will suit or what mods can be done to make it fit without the brakes fouling the clock pod.
also the clutch cable rubs the light/clock bracket but i guess that is a simple fix by using the speed triple clutch cable with the clipon's

oops, just realised BOTH brackets are the wrong shape for my clocks, they are for the later 1050 clocks DOH!
