    Today I recieved my FactoryKiss Master Cylinder and clutch lever assembly. I slapped these on my 1982 XJ750 Seca, that I have been turning into a Cafe racer. My brother and friend also got some items from factorykiss, and seem to be happy with the products. Note: the clipons and gold levers are for my brother's '97 GSXR750. Also, ignore the handlbar setup as they are just for getting the feeling of clipons before I order a pair.

    Those look nice, but if you are going to mount them that low, you have to check the clearance between the gas tank and the clamp screws on the clip-ons.
    When you turn the all the way to either side, the fork gets really close to the gas tank, and most clip-ons with rear facing clamp screws will not clear it… something I found out after I order my set (not factorykiss).

    I have already performed this test and found that works for me just fine, with the exception of about a millimeter on the throttle side. Fortunately it's an easy fix.

    sometimes you can cut a set of regular bars to use instead of the straight clip on bars to get some rise or pull back, or just a different look

    I'm actually still deciding on which clipons to order, as there are a bunch of options. Should I go for partsnmore, or shoul I go for a set of eBay ones?
