I've personally tested the Vortex, Woodcraft R3 Specific, and Woodcraft Universal 1.5" rise. Here's the full review with tons of pictures:

I recommend the Vortex set above the triple clamp for street bikes and street/track bikes that will retain the stock shock, or an aftermarket shock that is the same length as stock.

I recommend the Woodcraft Universal 41mm clipons with 1.5" rise for race bikes, and recommend using the Graves steering stop to limit the steering angle and prevent interference. This is what I'm using now and very happy!

Awesome, dude. Excellent write-up and pics. Can't wait to get the Vortex clip ons, levers, and riser brackets installed tomorrow. I know it's going to feel like a totally different bike. All that's left is to raise that stock seat 2" and then we're really dancing.
