Re: New 0 Degree Clip-Ons with Risers!!!
Unfortunately SilverR6 is correct; We placed an order for an additional 10 sets, but those sold before we have even received them. We are trying to have Swatt make extras with every order so we can stock them, but demand has been too high for what they have kept up with. Hopefully in the next 1 or 2 shipments we will be able to accumulate some stocking sets. Right now we are looking at 3-4 weeks on orders since their outsourced anodizing has been getting slower and slower.Sounds like powdercoating and anodizing work hand in hand
Thanks for the kind words and your patience. We really wish people didn't have to wait more than 1-2 weeks on these.

Re: New 0 Degree Clip-Ons with Risers!!!
ok my thoughts on the clipons is
pros
1. nice height
2.look good
cons
1.the two piece clamps sucks ***..having to tighten/loosen the 4 bolts to put on or off,sucks ****,because if you dont tighten them at the same rate you strip the damn head ...cause one was tighend more then the other
2.the rise peice moves around like Micheal Jackson..
3.after moving around and a few stalls later,went home to notice one bolt was cracked on each side..(out side bolt).(what the ****) glad i wasn't doing any stoppies,because if the clamp came off while doing one,(lets just say i have no job and like to travel,so i trip to the factory would have been in order)......
soooo needless to say i think they need to revise the design before some one gets hurt....
and yes i used lock tight,and that **** mine as well have been ky...because they still come loose and moved.....

I will forward this to Swatt and see if they address it; At this point it looks like we may stop carrying the Swatt bars until their customer service/timeliness and quality improves. We have been waiting nearly a month for our last order and if their quality doesn't improve we don't want to offer them to customers. I apologize to anyone who has had to wait an abnormally long time for these. If it was in our control things would be different.
they just need to do some more engineering on there end. taking all the wait off the bolts will help a lot. after looking at them for about 5 minutes there is about 3-4 good ways of redesigning without really changed the apperence much.

I agree, 1 step in the mating surfaces could relieve the stress off of the bolts.
I think things like this should be beat on hard before being sold to the public. Average street riders don't beat on their bars.
Stunters on the other hand......
