Maybe give them a chance to correct things before you post up about it?

The install of the Swatt clipons has been extensively documented here.  You should have done a search before hand to know what to expect.

yes I must apologize for the tone of my post I like motowheels and there service is A+ as far as the search I looked at quite a few Clip-on posts and did not see anything of note but thanks for chopping my head off !

as for the head light mod I will look into it but I do like the small windscreen so Idk if that would be a option.

I must say I understand why so many of my friends who own Ducati's steer clear of this board with the nature of some of the replies.

You understand that this is a not for profit forum...right?

I don't think we care what 'people' think.  ;D

Well, as that might be - I thought the OP had a 696. Since there was no question, I didn't answer.

Do you have a question Scoby?
