Title: Clubman bars - thoughts? Post by: davehong on November 09, 2010, 08:09:22 AM Anyone have these or know of someone who does?
I like the fact they are 4-way adj. and can flip em to fit my needs... http://www.rearsets.info/handlebars.html (http://www.rearsets.info/handlebars.html) Title: Re: Clubman bars - thoughts? Post by: stopintime on November 09, 2010, 11:08:31 AM No FHE, but I like the adjustment range.
(Are your stock bars the tapered ones? If so, these won't fit) Another thing - please get the black ones and NOT the chrome. Another thing II - maybe mount them with a little lock tite here and there? There will be quite some weight on the joints. [thumbsup] Title: Re: Clubman bars - thoughts?

I've considered these bars as well. Please be aware that they are pretty wide for the Monster, saw a photo somewhere and they looked a bit odd. Could probably be hacked down a bit as needed. If you do get them, post plenty of pictures. Haven't written them off completely :D Title: Re: Clubman bars - thoughts?

Title: Re: Clubman bars - thoughts? Post by: davehong on November 17, 2010, 07:27:13 AM artful: will do.
berg: why not? Title: Re: Clubman bars - thoughts? Post by: seevtsaab on November 17, 2010, 09:03:49 AM artful: will do. berg: why not? Most adj forks will stand proud of the triple by an inch and some, usually requires a clipon to clear. Title: Re: Clubman bars - thoughts? Post by: davehong on November 17, 2010, 11:18:27 AM oh i see. i dont plan on adj. forks during the life of the bike...so far.
Title: Re: Clubman bars - thoughts? Post by: Mojo S2R on November 17, 2010, 08:21:18 PM I already have those or similar to those. I think they may be a different brand. Just haven't installed them just yet.
I do have adjustable forks and there are no clearance issues. I've seen adjustable forks installed on bikes with OEM bars so I really don't see why you couldn't with adjustable bars. Unless of course you want to lower your front end to a point where the forks would go up past the bars. Couldn't install yet because I have an S2R which have the tapered magura bars which are 28mm (1 1/8") at the center. Chris from Desmoworld is making me replacement bar clamps so that I can install standard 22mm (7/8") bars. Plan on installing them within the next month hopefully. I'll post some pics when I do. |
