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.

Have you looked at our FAQ on posting pics?

Nicely done.

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

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.

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