no it's not hurting any thing except your stoppies it make the point of rolling nice and long or flipping over closer .......with the forks lower in the tripple it makes those two further apart....like i said what you did just makes the sweet spot smaller

old man roger

if the 03 has 50 mm inverted forks then the 636 clipons flipped are nice with there 7 degree pitch it makes for a slight upward turn which feels perfect and raises your grip which help every trick there is

Wheeliest

this is how we do in arizona beotch, No lowering at all. and really comfy

old man roger

yea but his tripple is flat so flipping it over wouldn't do it for him

Beto

so the 636 clipons are 7 degrees? I thought they were 10 degrees

old man roger

mine are 7 stock 03 636

i actually checked it with an angel finder

YellowGixxer

exactly!! i seen pcp tony's...or king tony's...or whatever the **** yo uwanna call him now..i seen his setup..and its like that i was wanting to do it but i seen the tripple is flat..i think my setup will be decent..ill check it out and let you fellas know how its going!!:YEAH

YellowGixxer

damn rog....do you ever sleep?? haha

FiSh

turn those bars in a few degrees

YellowGixxer

me?? why wil it help?

Wheeliest

straight bars are just bad on the wrist. bring em in alittle bit like mine. look at the underside of your hand, and notice that you will make more contact with the thick thumb mucle area if the bars are turned it.

YellowGixxer

sweet...i remember icut my ***** off the clipons..and moved them out alot...and it was hard to make corners in wheelies vs..a little turned out and i could make any corner in a wheelie

Beto

hmmm well then I would guess that the 05-06 ones are 7 also...anyone confirm this?

Wheeliest

03-06 are the exact same.

old man roger

no..........

HECK

I have vortex clip ons on my F4i. the clip ons are set up where the stock ones sit right at the lock ring whatever that thing is. I haven't measured and referenced my service manual to see if it's lower than stock. I'm guessing it is lower because the stock clip ons are somewhat slimmer.

I guess my question is should I keep it the way it is or lower it to stock where clip ons would not clamp the entire fork and risk a clip on coming loose?

old man roger

as long as you have 3/4 of the clip on on the fork you are good....

ive seen people with the fork only in the clipon half way but better safe then sorry i always say

HECK

I'll try it, I still haven't gotten to ride it yet because I broke a pinch bolt and haven't had the time to extract it, but I've got race tech springs and valves hyperpro csc steel braided lines and a pilot power race front tire so I hope it stoppies nice

old man roger

if you have to drill out the bolt put it in the freezer before you use an easy out on it ....trust me on this one when you have steel in aluminium it helps

FiSh

Yeah its alot better, even dirt bars are angled a bit at the grip.

I found its alot more stable than having them straight out.
