I want to buy a set or after market clip ons, now my question is, can i get a set that have like less of a sweep?? i dont want to ride with my elbows in as much, plus i hear u have better control in wheelies if your bars are straighter.... Also, does anyone know what MilliMeter the F3's clip ons are??? i need to know the size before i order em..... thanks guys, i would really appreciate the help....

i think the f3 has 41mm forks. vortex makes some awesome ones that you can replace only the hand grip part if you dump it again.

e-bay baby. look under sv650 for clipons. 41mm most likely cheaper than F3 stuff. The sellers know there is more F3's out there than SV's, so they can sell Honda stuff for more. Got Vortex-new, with 4 spare tubes with bar-ends for $125, shipped :YEAH

Re: dumped a stoppie, need some help...

I thought our forks were 43mm? Not sure but kneedraggers.com sells em too. Not sure what you mean by sweep or rake. Maybe you could draw me a crayon picture? Stock clip-ons were fine for me so far, but I wanna upgrade sooner or later too, prolly after I finally break them. I just grinded off that little notch on the bottom so I could turn them out some more. This helped me out a lot. Of course, I have no idea what the hell I'm doing so....... your prolly better off listening to someone else.
