il_cacciatore Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Hello people Looking to get a set of clip ons as the previous owner put bar risers on it. Looking to grab some of that handling back by getting some additional weight over the front wheel. Done a search on the net and found these Harris Clip Ons and wondered if anyone has experience with them. Don't want to buy anything outwith Europe due to high import duty and taxes. Been stung before by buying stuff from USA. Any alternatives worth a mention? Cheers ears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Minnaert Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 I have these, light, very nice finish and adjustable. from http://www.mr-motorradtechnik.de webshop: http://shop.strato.de/epages/61528700.sf/e...bjectID=4144355 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il_cacciatore Posted June 14, 2008 Author Share Posted June 14, 2008 Thanks for that suggestion Paul. Noticed that these are about £100 more expensive than Harris, will that be because they are better quality? I'll need a fork head as the one I have has risers on it and its red. Wondering where I can get a new one, I see Rossopuro sells them; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They work well! Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Minnaert Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 nothing wrong with the harris, but they are not adjustable in the angle. So if they fit you ok, else you have to live with that. The MR is very well made and light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beuphonium Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 I am running 54mm Woodcraft clip-ons on my cafe' sport. They are nice in that their 2-piece clamp system does not require removal of the top clamp to install / remove them. On the other hand, the Harris units do come in a high-rise model. I have a set of Magni clip-ons as well, they have about the same bar height as the Harris high-rise units. The standard ones are significantly lower, IMHO. - Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
