when mine was FF all i did was turn them out to all past stock. u have then turned out too far. pull them in some till ur not hitting the fairing. or ur gonna have to cut it.

honestly if you just pull them back in till they don't hit it you will be fine. takes a few min. to get used to it but once u do its not bad.

when u run FF u don't have to have them at Stock. u can turn them out a lil bit to give you more control.

Re: Clip ons
