Simple solution - fit 54mm clip-ons

or modify my 50mm thumb brake bracket to a 54mm thumb brake bracket,,,,,,,

It clamps to the fork under the clip-ons which limited how far up I could move the fork.

Well slight improvement at Cadwell
On average only 2 to 3 seconds down on last year with my best lap of the weekend only being a tad over 1 second slower than last years best lap, in race 2 which was Sundays first race and that lap was done with a fogging visor and popping it open 6 to 7 times a lap.

If you drink that, then your vision goes blurry and you don't notice the fogging!!
