Yeah. It is possible to modify and fit Harley switches on any bike. The main problem you may face is that the Harley switches are made for a larger handlebar diameter - So, either you'd have to replace the handlebars for the larger ones, or use some kind of adapters/spacers.
Another option would be to use BMW R1100 or R1150 switches. These are costly (meanwhile, lots of cheap replicas of Harley switches). R1150 are very big and easy to press. The problem with these is that you need a more special flasher unit (while I think Harley does not). You press the button on each side to turn the signals on, and then press the third button to turn them off.
Personally, I think the Harley switches are actually more friendly to various modifications. The easiest way would be to fit a larger handlebar by using some handlebar risers that accept the larger handlebar (f.e. this).
Since I am a cheap person (and own a lathe) I'd probably do it this way: I'd make aluminium adaptor sleeves that would fit over the stock handlebar, and right under the new switches. I also have a knurling tool for the inside and outside, that'd make it grip well. I'd cut it in half with an angle grinder and use it between the new switches and the handlebar...
Looking at the clamps you are looking at, they are different than the ones I have. Mine are theprotaper universalones (with 3/4" lift that you are looking to avoid).​
Mine have two bolts that go into the top of the triple tree not the one bolt like the ones you linked. Which reminded me that the SM has the upside-down forks which must have a different triple tree. When I pulled that part number, it was for a DRZ400SM though.​
Last random link for ya, this is the post I used while shopping thatRAM mount, they all say its M8 here too.​
I think you are right (we're talking different bolts) , my S doesn't have a removable lower bar clamp like the SM; which makes sense, upside-down forks vs conventional so the upper triple isn't the same. This also explains why it's so dang confusing to pick out a scott's steering damper!
​
Anyway, good luck with the new bike! This is my first season on my DRZ400s and I love it so far. Huge upgrade over my xt350... haha
