Vortex clip-on handlebars are a cost-effective replacement bar with serious strength, machined from solid billet and finished in black. They suit riders converting to a lower, more committed riding position, or replacing damaged original clip-ons on a sportsbike with 50mm fork tubes.
The two-piece design is the standout feature: the handlebar tube is removable, so after a crash you can simply fit a new tube rather than replacing the complete clip-on. Supplied as a pair with both collars, bar tubes and fasteners, they carry a 7 degree bar angle.

- Confirm your fork tube outer diameter is 50mm before fitting — these collars will not clamp correctly on any other size.
- Fit the collars to the fork tubes and set bar height and rotation before final tightening, so both sides sit level and match each other.
- Use only the supplied high tensile fasteners; tighten them evenly and progressively in stages rather than fully torquing one bolt at a time.
- With the bars fitted, cycle the steering to full lock in both directions and check for clearance against the tank, fairing, brake and clutch lines and wiring.
- Check the throttle opens smoothly and snaps fully closed on its own, and that levers and switchblocks are positioned within comfortable reach.
- Re-check all fasteners for tightness after the first ride and then at regular service intervals, particularly after track use.
- After a crash or drop, inspect the clip-ons closely and replace the bent or damaged handlebar tube rather than reusing it; the collars can normally be retained if undamaged.
- Do not drill, cut, heat or otherwise modify the collars or tubes, as this compromises their strength.
- Clean with mild soap and water and a soft cloth; avoid harsh solvents, degreasers and abrasive pads that can mark the black finish.
- If you are fitting bar ends, note that Vortex BE118K bar ends are designed to work with these clip-on tubes.
- If you are not confident with the installation, have the clip-ons fitted and torqued by a qualified motorcycle mechanic.
