Measurements needed!

Post by vfrman » Sat Jan 05, 2013 7:22 pm

Could someone measure the clearance behind the headlights? Maybe even take a pic or two? I don't have my street bike near me or I would just do it myself. Hopefully there is 3 or 4 inches to spare behind them...

Man, that pic is perfect! Can you get me a clearance measurement of the area right behind the headlights? I would guess give the bars full left lock and see how much space is between the fork leg and the plug of the headlight.

Cheers!

I think looking at it it's around 50mm with the plug connected and on full left lock measuring the right fork leg to the plug in a straight line. I personally would stay safe with 45mm.
