S4: what are my options for triple clamps and clip-ons? (PICS PLEASE)

[hydra]

hello,

i've been searching around and i don't see a lot of topics regarding triple tree and clip-on options for an S4. i saw the cyclecat trees but i haven't seen much else.

i'm a nooB so i'm not sure what size forks i have and what to look for. i have an '02 S4 Foggy with showa forks.
i'm looking for a combo where i don't have to raise the fork height and be able to use the stock grips and controls,etc.

please post a pic of your combo on your S4 and where you purchased them and prices would help a whole lot too....

thanks

You can use quite a variety of clip-ons, they just need to be 50mm diameter.
They'll have to go below the triple, though.
Your stock triple will foul most (if not all) clip-ons.

Here's some SpeedyMoto stuff:

Here's some Rizoma clipons, they fit on risers pretty much like the CycleCat stuff:

You could go with Woodcraft.

Sorry, no really good pics.   But there is this:  http://www.ducati.ms/forums/showthread.php?t=2594&page=24

Somehow I am unable to load pics.

Odd.

thanks speeddog! which sets do you have on your S4? could you post a pic...please?
im waiting on some cash that will come in the next week and i'll be making an appt at flight cycles for penske's, triple and clip ons. this should be something that can be done in a couple of hours...no?

i think the cyclecat DBR adapters are meant to mimic the S4 triple setup.  If you can find those then any 50mm clipons should fit above the tree.

i can't verify this though, since the CC site is down

I think the S4 shares the same triple as the S2R1000.  You can get a number of clip-ons to fit.  This picture is of a Vortex clip-on.  It has no rise to it and is a very agressive riding position.  I have installed a Cycle Cat DBR-13 on it now and it has about a 1.5" rise.



Notice this picture shows lowered gauges...

'01 and '02 S4 have the same triple and bars, I *think* they're the same as ST4 and ST4s.

S4R, S4Rt, and S4Rs have a 'conventional' triple, for tubular handlebars.

The CycleCat risers are indeed 50mm, so there's a bunch of clip-on options.

CycleCat is gone, but you can still buy the risers from oncycles.com:

Get 'em while you can, the price is a steal.
AFAIK, they're never going to make any more.

hey spinned, thanks for posting the pic. that looks a bit aggressive for me though. the CCat multi adjustable looks like it might work for me.

hey speeddog,

thanks for the pic. i might want to keep my triple as you did, especially since i have the DP steering damper which covers up much of the triple anyway. have you seen the CCat multi-adjustable bars? are these what you have? looks like part #'s :
DBR23- Above Triple Clamp (w/S25+ DRA-1)= $395
DBR33- Above Triple Clamp (w/S15+ DRA-1)= $395
DRA1- Above Clamp Adapter Only= $155

i saw it on this website:

I know this doesn't help much, but mine with cyclecat's triple and clip ons...

[Speeddog]

hydra,

Yes, I've got those CCat multi-adjustable bars.
I don't remember which ones I've got as far as the model#, but they're the shorter ones.

Yes, call me whenever you want. 

Oncycles.com doesn't show any of the bars, I think your only chance is finding some used ones.

[Kaveh]

Hydra, I got a Cycle cat top triple, risers, and bars that I'm selling.  They all are in titanium finish.  I *think* the bar system is the dbr33, I'll have to check on that.

The CycleCat adapters ARE a steal @ $155 from Oncycles, but they don't specify if that's for the pair, or is they're sold individually...

-I would assume they're sold by the pair....Think I'm gonna pick some up while I still can!!
