Default Flight Comp Top Clamp

Just installed a Flight Comp top triple clamp. Pretty easy installation, about 1 - 1 1/2 hours taking my time and being very careful not to scratch anything. Hardest part was drilling off the heads of the security bolts on the ignition but it's not a big deal.

The service from Flight Comp was great, the product appears to be of excellent quality, fit and finish. It comes with easy to read instructions and all the hardware needed. I'm using it because it'll make a clean way to add my Zumo and radar detector with Ram mounts plus it allows quite a bit of adjustment to the handle bars.

I got mine about 7 months ago and you hit the nail on the head. Easy instal, look great, feel better with the adjustability, and great to mount gps and other stuff.

Talking with the guys at flight comp. They were great to deal with

Looks great! Love the blue on black.

Some of you might know our current website is really bad. That's why I'm happy to say our all new site is going to be up in a day or two!

Mind if I steal your pics for our gallery?

I have a Escort 9500IX (radar detector )and am trying to figure out how I want to mount it. How is your detector mounted? do you have a list of the parts or a link?
I'm strongly considering this top clamp or helibars. Can you tell a difference in the bar height?
I guess I'm getting old, I want the power but want a little comfort too.

Any input would be appreciated. I sent a PM to the Manufacturer but they haven't been on the forum for a while.
