They didn't work :unhappy: ......
There are three main challenges of installing clip-on risers on the 2013 D675....
1. The thickness of the triple tree clamp is 8mm:
2. The clearance from brake assembly to fairing is limited:
3. The space for brake and lever lines is limited:
CLIP-ON RISER OPTIONS (early results:curtsey
1.
APEX clip-on risers
Here are the Apex clip-on risers:
There are 3 complications with the Apex riser clip-ons:
1. There is only 6mm of clearance between the riser post and the inside of the clamp:
2. The post can't be raised high enough to clear the triple clamp because it hits the fairing; and,
3. The riser post that hangs below the clamp interferes with the brake and lever lines underneath the brake reservoir.
So, Apex riser assembly no worky
out:
(Luckily, my hubby has a 2013 GSXR 750 he will be able to install the Apex risers on instead.:wink2
2.
Apex GP Clip-Ons
Although they are not a "riser," per se, if set at the 0 degree angle adjustment, it should give you about an inch of rise. I have these on order and will post up results when they arrive. :thumbsup:
3.
Speedymoto
Speedymoto clip-ons with Omni bars:
I called Speedymoto this morning, and a representative measured the distance from the inside of the clamp to where the clamp holds the bar, and I was told it was.......
wait for it....
8mm!!!!!!!!! :threecheers:
The benefit of the speedy moto over the Apex GP Clip-Ons may be that we get a little more rise out of them. However, it may be too much rise and hit the fairing. I ordered a set and we are going to see how it goes, will post up results. We may need to lightly sand the outer band of the triple clamp to make a smidgen more room, but we will see:hmm:

Gilles Vario Bars
These have a lot of potential, but I have been unable to get a measurement on the distance from the inside of clamp to the piece that holds the bars....
If anyone out there can give us that measurement, that would help mucho:icon_wink:
5. Heli Bars...
Dunno if these will work. We need some pix and detailed measurements.
Can someone out there help us with this? :computer:
6. LSL...
Again, don't know if these will work yet. If anyone out there has detailed measurements and info on these, I would appreciate it :thumbup:
The LSL's look like they should work.... again, we have multiple clearance issues to figure out. Maybe I should just order a pair to add to the research pile
Cheers:icon_thank:
