Clip-ons on G12

Tanabuso Posts : 95 Join date : 2013-09-11

Don't have much time for the blingish bullshit but i an intrigued by the notion of clip-ons and rearsets as executed on this ClassicCo tart-up of a G12. I find our wide and high bars tiresome sometimes.

Also did not realize you could dispense with the porkshops.

Ay, Caramba!

I love it!

Piss the poxy exhaust wrap off..

Pork chops hold pegs and rear brake m/c and both brake and shifter link. You'd need to make custom brackets etc. Can't see what they bolted to.

Ahhh...so. That totally makes sense: If you want to relocate foot controls, you get rid of the porkchops. Thanks, Beetle.

Also forgot the link to the builders in Madrid: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] More pictures there.

That is kinda cool, but the pipe wrap looks awful and that headlight makes it look like a praying mantis!

Thanks for posting the link, Freshegg. There's a few things I like; the exhaust 2 into 1 cover; the cleaned up profile; and a third thing I've forgotten already. Probably because I can't get passed
that headlight choice. Man, it just looks like its still halfway through being installed, with all the wires and bolt holes and empty space. I still applaud the overall effort though! What beyond my expertise.

And Street, as for your mocking praying mantis photo-shopping or whatever voodoo you do.
I thought you had made a solemn oath to only use your powers for good, not evil!

I never made any such promise, Daves! I'll mock anything that strikes me as mockworthy!

Exhaust wrap looks like when our dog had worms pig

STOP PRESS!
REAR SETS FOR GRiSO on standard pork chops

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

I have seen a set on a Diavel, they look well engineered.
- Interlocking teeth design to ensure secure positioning
- 39mm Extension & 360 Degree Adjustment (also 24mm extension available)
- Fully Adjustable & High Flexibility
- Safety Mounting Lock, Ensure Position Fixed

M-Factory have multiple design of footpegs to suit stock mounts.
Touring pegs are pictured, round sports pegs also available.

I have removed a stock peg from Bella and will check against stock shape and dimensions for all Jap, Aprilia and Ducati models to determine which are best to order.

You do know MFW have been making them for years? LINKY

Motorrad in Perth are the local importer. I've got a set, but find there is more offset than the KD pegs.

Well why didn't you tell FreshEgg that in your first post?

He was probably trying to choose a paint colour for his garage ceiling. Razz

Yeah Pete, I finally figured out why his bike is so shiny. He keeps trying to polish out the imperfections in the tank, not realizing it is only a reflection or what is above. Laughing
