First off, I have read several previous threads about this and have found differing opinions... I am going to swap out my clipons to standard bars before riding season - question is: Is there areason to swap out both, the lower and upper triple clamp, or is it acceptable to only swap the top one? I just received the new upper and lower clamps, but after looking at it a little, I dont see a reason to replace the lower as well. - thanks for the help!

Are you going to mount the stock naked upper triple clamp?? I have read somewhere that the S model does have a other offset than the naked triple clamp. That's the reason you need to swap them both.

Yep, I have the stock upper and lower from an 07 purchased from another svrider member. What offset are you referring to?

To the offset off the triple clamps.
'N' has 26.5mm offset, 'S' has 28mm offset.
