'05 Clip Ons...

[TripleTrouble]

anyone know of any clip ons that will work on the '05 forks yet? Might be a cool look

Thanks,
Chris

Once you know the fork diameter you can get the proper size clips from Vortex, Sato, Cyclecat, LSL, etc.

How to ...

Evening Gents, I just got into town and think I might learn a thing or two, New to the system so if I stumble it means I'm on the right track.
A Question , Clipons, the pics from Tervuren at the French Link look to say 52 mm. and looking at specs. from another site (powersportsnetwork.com)or Triumph.co itself look to say 45mm. Is there something I am overlooking? Great looking bike Tervuren, tail is sweet.

It appears that I have already begun my education,
The name is BELGIANTRIPLE and again, sweet ride!

The confusion here is because these are inverted forks. Technically these are 45mm sliders inside 52mm fork tubes. The number you are looking for is the 52mm, as this is the part the the clipon attaches to. However, if you were to order a replacement fork, you would order a 45mm inverted fork (the inside.)

On old style forks the inner slider was the part that the clipon attached to, and was therefore the number you would be looking for.

Everything clear?

Thanks Crashmasterd, That tells me what I need to know and good to know about the fork replacement as well. Happy Riding. See you around the forum, Hows the 05 Triple compared to the 03, any comments? I just got my Trip. Thursday and I havent had a chance to get a ride in. | :hammer:

The bike on the picture is mine. I used Kawasaki ZX9r clip ons. They work perfectly, I bought them used but almost new at a bike parts shop.
All my previous bike where sport bikes (Aprilia RSV, GSXR...) and I prefer the riding position with clipons.

Hope this helps.

Cool Look , I am curious if you have risers on the clipons , because looking at where the clipon goes on the fork( on my bike) it seems extremely set forward and low ?

[sergio2005]

No risers. The clipons are fixed under the triple clamp and the angle is quite open to avoid hiting the tank and the frame. If you need closer pics let me know.

Enjoy your ride
