Default bar conversion









Right I took a chance on some adjustable clip on bars off eBay.
There on the bike on the left side in this picture and have been done completed now but I forgot the finished picture!

Hopefully they will make the bike more comfy but only time will tell.

They sit lower on the forks but adjust upwards and give a more "flat"bar appearance

Here's the difference between standard and new , approx 100mil higher and no need for cable extending either!!!!!

Well guys I can confirm the bars work a treat! Quick trip to matlock earlier and they are much more comfy, I may lower then slightly yet as they feel a little too high :-/

Took the sv650 over the snake pass earlier and I reckon the bike is easier to ride quick with the flatter bars on, there's more leverage to muscle it around, well happy!

That seems way too cheap for what they are. What's the quality like?

Well they are doing the job :-/ seam fine to me but I ain't any sort of engineer. No real way of telling I suppose, the threads are strong and haven't stripped when torqued up, feel solid once on, what more can I say :-/
