All the Jap bike 49mm clip-on's will be 7/8" controls, not 1" Harley.
ZX-11 uses a 49mm fork.
You could always use Buell controls if you elect to go with 7/8" clip ons, as they may adapt to the HD throttle and clutch cables.
Or you could just run a 1" clubman bar, and call it a day.

Man I so wish my back could take that low bar position. I would give anything to have a back that could be up to the task of riding any position for hours! I would love something like this on my bike: RSD bars.
i feel ya on that one bud, but that is why you build another scoot! you should see some of the cafes that traveler and Tweeking are building and have built and you have seen mine... fun bar hoppers!nice to have a little scoot to rip some turns on!

Either go with a custom set, or go with one of these above and run 7/8" controls rather than 1". There are a lot cooler grips, perches, and levers for 7/8" bars anyway. This could give you a chance to clean the buttons off the handlebars, go with some real slick levers and even upgrade to a crotch rocket master cylinder/dual brake setup. (I realize this is much more involved than what you had in mind, but it would be Sweet!)
Edit: See, this is what I'm talking about. This 7/8" clutch/master cylinder is made for a dual disc setup on a rocket. F'ing Beautiful.
Just curious, where are you wanting to mount the clip-ons? Below the top tree? I've seen several bikes with the tubes pushed up through the top tree about an inch with the clip-ons mounted on the upper section of the tube. Looks killer and drops your front end some for Free.

yea this is why I suggested going sportbike route - it opens up so many possibilities - that magura lever is fukn beautiful!
defintly would also suggest going to mids - unless your 6'3" plus or something - otherwise you got the folded lawnchair thing going and it kills the whole purpose of getting down in that position in the first place - i dropped to a set of nash drag gimps and went back to mids - now with a renthal CRhigh bar - and i love the position, but might have to mess around with a set of clipons too! (thinkin setting up to quick change maybe...)

Try these guys out, http://www.crossroadsperformance.com/cp/ I used their clip-ons and a bunch of other parts when I cafe'd my sportster. I am sure they can fix you up with what you need.
