Default Handlebar Clamp

If I get a handlebar clamp,will the ignition wires be exposed or do they get tucked under the clamp?My quad is street legal and I often leave it in the street,if I get a handlebar clamp,say the alba flame version,are the ignition wires easier to get to?Or do they get "clamped in between the clamp and the stem thingy?

The wires will be exposed but the plastic stock one isn't any better (pulls right off). In fact I think the stock would be easier to get to the wires. If someone wants it there going to get it (if they know anything about them). JMO

Yeah I know its comes off easily but it covers them out of sight(or rather out of temptation,if you know what I mean),when the clamp is on are they just hanging there or are they covered out of sight?

They are not out of sight but they are not hanging out all over the place. You could bundle them up with something to make it allot harder to get to. It will look allot nicer too.

Wish I could ride mine around town. That would be a blast. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Where do you live that you can ride it on the street?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

All you do is put some blinkers and mirrors on,then insure it as a farm vehicule...The police in south Spain arnt really strict,so you can wheelie off at the drop of a green light,showing off without getting a ticket for dangerous driving unless they have nothing better to do or they are bored.And they dont really take "the chance" because most people you see driving Raptors here are Mafia or Dealers...

LOL! I was quite surprised,I hadnt had the Raptor long,I came round a round-about and powerslided all the way around it,I didnt know there was a motorcyclecop following me [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img] he drove up beside me and did a hand signal to slow down,I was wearing a helmet with a black sun visor pulled down,all I did was look at him and he slowed down and let me go first! BEHOLD THE POWER OF THE RAPTOR! If that had been a car powersliding it would have meant big ticket time...
