Howdy all, I was sent over here by a friend at the ZRXOA to find irish regarding his triple clamps. Does anyone have his contact info? I sent him a pm but figured someone else may have a better way to contact him since he hasnt been on in awhile. Any help is appreciated!

The last time I talked to him, he had quit the job out in the boonies due to some severe scheduling conflicts with the general contractor or the project. I have one of his triple clamps on my bike:



PM me your contact info, and I'll get it to him. I'm sure he'll be happy to hear from another buyer for his triples.

Wow that thing looks bulletproof! Is it CNC'd aluminum? You happy with it?

If it has tits or tires, it'll give you problems!

It IS bulletproof! :laugh: It is much heavier than the stock GSXR triples...a hell of stout piece of CNC'd aluminum. I had it anodized black, and I LOVE it. I confess though, it is the single most expensive part on my bike at the moment :whistle:

I'm sure the program could be modified, but there is more to it than simply changing the diameter or width of the fork tube locations. The stem is cnc lathed to use the GSXR hardware but the KZ bearings. I'm really ignorant about what goes into his triple tree programs, irishwill would be the man to ask about changing things for different front ends.

MTB, yes, including the SSSA/hardware/wheel/shock combined, those triples were still more expensive. Not alot more mind you, but more :blink: The triples were $650 shipped.

He might have some top clamps left... I couldn't say. The gull wing triple is a complete set up; upper, lower and stem with the stock KZ fork offset. His lone upper clamp is not a gullwing design and made to work with the stock GSXR lower clamp, so you still have to swap the stems.
