Re: My new bit of kit
All fitted now, just back from a blast to the Ponderosa (where the sun was shining incidentally), what a difference the new bars make, much easier to flick about once i got the hang of it, and ooohh the comfort .

Re: My new bit of kit
Hi Rob, £250 for the whole kit, Hel lines, yoke, risers, grips, bar ends and the Renthal streetfighter low bars. I used the original clutch cable but its a bit tight against the yoke on full lock, so im going to change it for one off a naked when i can find one.
Bit pricey i know as a few people have just drilled the original yoke and fitted the bars that way, but i had the cash and thought, what the hell I been out again today and i have to agree with you too Mike, its is THE best thing i have done to the bike, was changing it as a few of you here know to something more suited to doing bigger miles, but i could not part with it, and now with the bar conversion, i am soooo happy i kept it. Its going to be a good spring/summer, passport and GB sticker are ready |
