HTTP_REQUEST happens after TCP and SSL Handshake with your primary-vip. According to the iRule F5 does analyze uri and if it matches your condition sends HTTP_GET request to the 

secondary-vip
when there is no initial connection established. I'd use a redirect which whould force client to initiate a new session to your 
secondary-vip
:

when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if {[HTTP::uri] starts_with "/example" } {
      HTTP::redirect https://'url representing secondary vip'
    }
}
