Were there issues with clearance on bikes with coffin style reservoirs? Not so when using clip ons with rise?

I dont have clip ons so i cant tell you. I know that no rise = ALOT of clearence issues. if there were rise, i think it would make it much easier.

so who is gonna be the guinea pig and buy these things to show us all how its done  ;D

i am about to pull the trigger on the 1.5in rise ones... i gotta start getting ready for the winter projects!!

Maybe me.  Good find, Stopintime.

These may be the solution to two, or three, issues I'm facing.
1) convert to SBK forks, apparently there are clearance issues with pre-load adjuster and OEM bars
2) Need to raise my bars a bit, back surgery  (May solve (1), but not with the bars I've seen so far)
3) Want more of an angle to take some funky pressure off my wrists, as OEM bars are too straight and consequently my thumbs get jammed up on a long ride.

OK - in two previous posts you replied "Ahhh. I dont think it would feel mushy then. I have 2.5inch rise on my tommasellis (or something very close to that number) and it feels solid" and "a good 2 inches lower than stock. This is due to the fact that mine are below triple" to questions regarding clip ons. These two statements imply that you in fact do have clip ons. Then you go on to say that you don't. Am I missing something here?

I can attest that He Man does in fact have clip ons (pretty sure he meant to say he didn't have coffin reservoirs), but I too am waiting for the response...
I only need one popcorn for this but I'll take a couple of beers while I wait.
