Any one on the fence about doing this mod all I can say is go ahead and drop the money. I had allready installed a 1098 rear shock on my monster & now paired with a set of 998 forks I have a whole new bike. Using woodcraft 3" rise clip ons mounted under a speedymoto upper tripple the bike has a very comfortable riding position, very close to the factory bars.

Do you have any smaller pictures?

I have yet to figure out how to make photobucket and this site get along on pic size. It seams no matter how big I make the image it shows up small here. Oh well

Much better!

Nicely done.

Is that zip tie I see on there to check how far they compress under load?

Yeah poor mans fork travel gauge, it helps with setting up the rider sag also.
