Converting Naked K1 to Cafe Racer:
I am considering converting my naked K1 to a Cafe Racer. I have an unfaired top yoke and clip ons. Looking at the bike last night the clocks mount to the top yoke and the indicators will be in the way. I have a later set of headlight mounting brackets, so that will overcome the indicator problem. I also have a set of LSL raised clip ons, so I am thinking of useing the naked top yoke and blanking off the handlebar riser holes with the LSL bars. How have others done this please?

Re: Converting Naked K1 to Cafe Racer:
I can't say I've seen any others doing this. I just thought I'd suggest you check the switchgear, cables, master cylinder and hoses will all fit ok. If your bike is a daily rider it might save you some time putting it all back if you come a cropper.

Have a search for some of TAMSV's threads he's turned a Curvy into a lovely looking Cafe Racer...
