Default Clip on install?

Just picked up some oem clip ons from a cbrf member. I remove the ****ty stunt bars, top tree to install them and they wont fit? I tried spreading the clamp but still won't fit? Am I installing them all wrong? Please enlighten me. Thanks... Oh and hiw much fork oil is enough in each fork? Thanks again

Im clueless on the oil...but post a pic of the clip on and the forks. That sounds odd.

Edit: I'm reading in another forum that 1 liter of oil is good.

maybe its just my eyes but those don't look like f4i forks to me. Chances are seeing it was previously a stunt bike that the forks have been swapped out, pretty common thing to do in the stunt community. Better pictures of the full forks would help.

Heres a pic of the forks. What are the possibilies of others being on there? What mm size?. Basicly when I match the clip on up to the fork its the same diameter as the fork. No matter how much I open the clamp it wont fit. These have to be the wrong forks. What are my other options? Thanks to everyone who has helped.

Was just doing a little research and seems like stunters like putting 929 forks on f4i's in a way this is good. But also bad because now I have to sell my f4i clip ons and get ones for a 929. If anyone else has any info plz join in. Thanks

I was thinking a full shot from top to bottom.. Are they inverted forks, cuz I'm guessing they are 929 or 954 forks.
