Tightening down DB Bars?

Aight i've been gettin this poppin noise when i come to a hard stop or when i come down off a endo. I thought it was the bolt on my triple but i started tearin down the DB bars and found that the mounts are loose. I didnt put them on this bike and it looks like u gotta pull the triple off to tightin the nut on the back? Is there an easier way???

nope......but while you're at it make sure you steering stem bearings aren't too loose either......they shouldn't be over tightened......stand it on the bar and if they slowly fall to the sides when you let it go they are good.....if there is alot of slack or they are too tight it will tear things up

get em welded weld the risers to the triple and all you got to worry about is tightening the clamps easier
