Title: Will the Rizoma upper triple tree with clip-on bars kit fit on the 696? Post by: almazing on February 28, 2009, 09:45:09 AM Hello. I'm looking for a more aggressive riding stance on my 696. So from your guys' perspective, do you think that the Rizoma clip-ons for the older Monsters will fit on the 696? It would be sweet to have those mounted up on my bike. Thanks.

Oh well. Might as well just wait for Rizoma to make some....Or get some under triple clip-ons like the Swatt with a 3.5 inch rise. One thing that worries me much about the Swatt clip-ons is the headlight clearance. The lines look long enough to not have to be rerouted though, But I could be wrong. Any 696 owners here have clip-ons installed? Did you run into and clearance issues with the headlights and lines? Title: Re: Will the Rizoma upper triple tree with clip-on bars kit fit on the 696?

On the 696 there's like a 1/3 of an inch clearance between the fork and stock headlight, which isn't very much room. It would make LOTS of sense for Rizoma to make a triple tree with clipon mounting for the 696/1100. But yeah.. I'd love to try on a pair of riser clipons on my 696.

Here's another variation, but see if you can spot what's missing: http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=11215.0 (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=11215.0)

Most of the Swatt riser effect is consumed by the distance from "under the triple position", the eliminated stock rise and the eliminated stock bar rise - then add/subtract the downward angle of clip ons.

Post by: DucatiTorrey on April 05, 2009, 01:10:37 PM oh i see. well, the lower position is kinda what im looking for. no sure if clip ons are exactly what im wanting to get into quite yet. maybe ill just wait for a 696 specific set up.

Never heard of anyone putting these on a monster... Title: Re: Will the Rizoma upper triple tree with clip-on bars kit fit on the 696?
