I would stay away from all the Chinese ones. There's not much change from £100 for a decent set of clip ons. :thumbup:

What's wrong with the stock ones. Weight saving?

They seem alot of money. when looking at the size change (50mm down to 42mm they jump up $30 more! )

I think i like the gold ones

I got some Gixxer ones to go one. Drop down and forward by about 10mm, not massive, but a change that I hope will suit me (long arms....)

That first set looks luvverly!
