Hahah yea thats where I was at. Love the look of the clip ons but definitley not comfortable what so ever. These new ones are it! Perfect look and feels great while riding. Let me know what you think!
Have the same bike. Also did a version of a cafe racer. Woodcraft has some great clip ons that are very comfy and look the part. I still went with the Tarozzi clip ons with risers, but mostly because they didn't let me return them after realizing that they don't work well with the stock tank. Either way they work fine for me. I have long arms and just sit closer to the tank when my wrists and neck get tired. Wish more people would cafe out this super fun and practical motorcycle.
I’ll have to check those out! Ended up stripping the tarozzis when I removed them so they’re no good to put back. I agree! I’m always hunting on google to get some more inspo. Definitley more than a few years ago but still not very many. Would love to do a complete rebuild eventually and hide that battery..
@@phillyjaybro yeah, I thought about making mine more of a pure cafe racer....problem is, the more you mess with the original design the more issues you will have in the future. One of the simple problems I'm encountering is after lowering the bars my lower throttle cable has broken twice in a year. So, any advice there would be appreciated.
So yea I have been wanting to put clip ons on my bike, you said it wasn’t too comfortable for commuting. But how tall are you? To give me perspective. Since I’m 6’3”… so I know you had Paulo terucci clip ons, but which ones did you use, since it looks like you still had decent steering movement. Was it the high rise version? I know they offer different riser sizes. Thanks!
Haha its been way too long! No touching! I tilted them up slightly so i have about 1/4" play and it feels perfect. Awesome, will pick few people in a week or so 🤘
Yo Dany! Just linked the handlebars site in the description! For the fender I’ll have to send you some images. I used the OEM bracket that holds the license plate to make the new bracket! If you send me you Ig I’ll send some pics!
@@phillyjaybro The bike looks great like this, man. I recently bought a 2014 CB 1100 EX and it is decidedly too "old man bike" just at the minute. I'm eager to start unbolting stuff...
I bought the ones in your last video (clip ons) and damn my back and neck I felt like they were gonna give out
Ima try these out ! Thanks !

I’m 6’0. Yea I had the high rise version.
Got the same bike I'm trying to figure out if there's a mod to take off the top speed limiter
Great question. Let me know if you find out!
Will do vice versa.
What part of Florida man? Im in Fort Myers.
Yo Eric! Actually grew up in Naples but up in Jax currently 🤘🏼
Nice updates it's been awhile!!! You have any touching with the renthals on the tank??? Also would love to try that Bali blue moon ;)
Haha its been way too long! No touching! I tilted them up slightly so i have about 1/4" play and it feels perfect. Awesome, will pick few people in a week or so 🤘
Erick dm me your address so I can send you that bag of coffee! IG retroracercoffee
I want to get one. Is it any good? I mean it got the looks
Incredible! Best bike I’ve ever ridden. Sporty but comfortable. Check out my other videos for more about it!
@@phillyjaybro thank you. What about fuel economy? I forgot to ask
@@othmane767 about 45-50mpg 🤘
Please link the handlebars and the mounts you got for the fender !! Thanks

Great video, buddy! Do you ever try using a leaf blower for drying?
Thanks James! I don’t, should I??
@@phillyjaybro Yes, it works wonders. Give her a good blow, then take her for a ride. In my experience, it gets the water out of the crevaces.
I do it with cars, boats, etc. I’ve found the less I touch the paint, the fewer swirls I get. The blower helps big time, less contact.
Epic! Ok I’ll have to give it a try on the next wash. Thanks for the tip James!! 🤘🏼
@@phillyjaybro Hey man, any luck with finding bar end mirrors that fit with those bars?

Haha I definitley left it on for way too long!! 😂
