Title: Clip ons and Triple Trees on S4RS - What size?
Post by: NorDog on March 24, 2011, 08:55:31 AM
I guess the subject line says it all.

Thinking about clip ons and fancy aftermarket triples for my S4RS.  Everything I see advertised just mentions "Monster" in the fitment info.

Are the tubes on the Ohlins the same diameter as the forks on non "S" Monsters?

I believe they all should be 50mm. Correct me if i'm wrong.

Just ran across a set of triples at Moto Wheels labeled for "Monsters with Ohlins" and claims the top is 53 mm and the lower is 56 mm.

So I guess the answers the question.  That is, if all the Ohlins are the same.

Anyone know anything I might be missing here?

I believe that is for the Superbike Ohlins conversion. The Monster Ohlins are the same diameter top and bottom as the Showas.

Damn, if my tools weren't still in Texas I would just throw the calipers on 'em and know what the diameters are.

Oh well, I'll likely have my tools out here before I have the time and money to pull off this project idea.

Your stock forks are a 50mm top and a 53mm lower.  We do have a set of forks that are 53/56 those are meant for a monster using SBK Ohlins forks.

We have triples available from Speedymoto. Also I have used set of clip-ons for $80. These are black.

Thanks Matt.

So my Ohlins forks are not the same as SBK Ohlins forks?
