Vinb,
I remember one guy switched the front end to a yamaha r1 front end, that looks like an r1 front end to me.
I like the gold forks and the triple trees, looks great!

I think the yokes should have three bolt points each. not two on lower and Definitely NOT only one on the top.

Banana man I agree, but space was the major issue so kept it the same as stock !! Have had to modify and re-route so much as it is.

Vinb, I have had a issue with brakes since I got the bike, have tried everything Inc updated disc, pads, M/C, even replaced caliper, so I think I just didn't like the feel of the ZTL ??

The clip-on's are from a later 2007 R6, the yokes are a custom job and took a awful lot of measuring : )

That's a lovely setup, I agree about the number of pinch bolts, but TBH the one you have is the same as stock so it probably won't be an issue.

Interesting that the clip ons are above the yoke, that'll alter the comfort/control quite a bit, in theory it'll be more "comfortable" that way.

Did you manage to get away witht he stock cables/lines?

Yes all stock lines and cables, couldn't use riser clip-on's with out changing throttle cables etc, couldn't go under the yokes as the would be too low, so above it was, and yes they only 1" higher compared to stock and feel very comfy, also clear fairing and frame this way : )

Once I'm finshed the clip-on's and radiator brackets will be anodised black too.
