To convert an S model to unfaired with bar risers, etc. or to convert an unfaired bike to an S model with clip ons?

Try breakers for the parts. Can't see any reason why parts shouldn't be interchangeable. May need longer cables/brake lins if converting an S to normal bars.

To convert a S in to a N with bar risers sutable for Renthal bars. I have been on the look out for some yokes from a N but as of yet have been unsuccessfull

I have long brake lines and clutch, though I'm not to sure about the choke and throttle...

Depends on how much of a rise you go for. Worse case scenario, you'll have to buy new ones for an N model! Not that bad really!

Nah... I could probably get away with refeeding them.

I've got a complete top and bottom yoke from an unfaired carb'd bike for sale if you are interested. Missing the bar rise though but I do have a set of Renthal bars for sale also

Check parts lists to see if part numbers are the same. The other issue *might* be the wiring harness being long enough the put the switch gear where you want it.

Bandit & SV Mania do a complete conversion kit inc new (longer) lines & cables.

Whichever you decide to go for in the end it IS worth spending the extra to buy at least a new top yoke - the original one on the 'S' IS NOT designed to have risers attached & may not take the stresses involved !!

Look forward to seeing it when it's complete
