Handlebar conversion
Hello, I'd like to change the clipons for bars so I'm after the full kit or maybe parts that I can cobble together? I have some 20mm clipon risers on at the mo' so they will be for sale once I get all the conversion parts together.
If at first you don't succeed - tools down and go for a ride.

Re: Handlebar conversion
iirc vfr bars will work, do a search for info, or someone will be along who knows more about it mate.

Re: Handlebar conversion
Yes the VFR bars do fit I had them on my yellow storm R.I.P.

Re: Handlebar conversion
Sod it, I'll bite the bullet and go for this kit http://www.bikermart.co.uk/proddetail.asp?prod=154-136
Without bars and bar ends and with a discount code for 10% off it's £215.95
I suppose I could recoup some dosh by selling the old clipons, brake lines and risers I already bought and fitted.
Anyone local who's good at carving up fairings with a dremel?

Re: Handlebar conversion
Hello pon, I've got a set of the lsl mounts that clamp on to the forks if you're interested?
If it's broken; should it move? Yes: Use WD40 No: Use cable ties. Now it's fixed!
