Default clip-on help

well, i just bought these:



and i was looking to buy a new set of clip-ons (probably vortex) but I dont know what size to get. does anyone know the size of the clip-ons on a 01 GSXR 1000?

if you notice, those grips I got have ends on them... so I dont wanna get a wrong size set of clip-ons and then the damn things wont fit... know what I'm sayin?

Sorry man I really don't know. Best bet is to ask the nearest cycle shop they should know that kinda stuff.

Clipon size should be listed. Call Vortex and ask them to measure one.

i found it, somewhere... cant recall where atm, but if anyone else was curious, or might need the info later, for an 01 GSXR 1000 the clipon size is 50mm

and if you just check the vortex site then all you will see is a list of the clipsons they sell ranging from about 40 - 60 mm (something like that anyways, that is probably a little exaggerated) and they dont tell what sizes go with what bikes.

so again '01 GSXR 1000 = 50mm clipons
