Not a problem really, but a question...
I checked the website and didn't see an option and I haven't tried to call yet either. You wouldn't happen to know if the sell just one side? Or do they have to come as a set?

From the site it doesn't say anything about that, but I would guess they only come as a set there. If you're looking for a replacement for only one side, have you tried to contact rizoma directly? Perhaps they have some leftover spares?

No I haven't. Good call, sometimes I need someone else to give me some sensible advise!!

Tried sending emails to both Optitune and Rizoma with no response. Seems I have 2 options. Buy another set from Optitune for $300 (a little high) or try to find something different.

In the different category, does any one have any suggestions for clip ons that mount above the top triple with very little or no rise at all. I'm sure some people have done it here but I would rather NOT lower the front end by any amount. FHE or "heard about some dude with some sh*t on his/her bike" is more than welcome.

Question, by "...very little or no rise at all.", do you mean in comparison to the stock handlebars?  If yes, then I was able to do it.  Cycle Cat DB1R clipons above the stock triple and 916 SBK forks, which poke out 1" above the triple, exactly what's needed to clamp the clipons.  New bars ended up same height and width as the stock bars, but swept back at a better angle, and no change to the axle position.

Take a look at the pic in the OP, I basically want the bars to be almost even to the top of the fork tubes. I guess what you would call "in the middle" of clip ons under the triple (with no rise) and stock risers.
