    stock gs with clip on handlebars, pics please

    Just like I wrote in title, pics wanted
    I plan to do something like that on mine gs. Not cafe conversion, I want to leave it original, clip-on handlebar would put solely because of the better feeling of driving.
    Thank You very much!

    gs 1150 with Telefix clip ons. they are adjustable in every way, and i like them very much. NOTE: i purchased these from ebay,(used) as listed to fit a gs1150. they fit the fork diameter ok, but when i unbolted the factory bars, and slid these on, they only went down about 5/8 - 3/4 of the way into the clip on socket. i tightened the shee-it out of the pinch bolt and they have never moved in 7 - 8 years of use.

                      Just a heads up, with lower bars like that you'll probably want to do something about the pegs as well. The older GSs have pegs that sit pretty far forward which, unless you are quite short, becomes an issue when the bars are moved down.
