Everyone with a Bomb knows that when you put aftermarket bars one that they hit the tank. What kind of clamps are you using to avoid this? Alba has a new one for 49.99 has anyone seen it? Info appreciated

 

HEY HURYCNE i was already for a battle when i bought my pro tapers and clamps .i had shims,grinders ,welders,compressor and an assortment of other vital tools for the installation.and lo and behold they went right on and dont hit go figure.im serious and they look good too.good luck

 

I went with a new + 2 inch anti-vibe steering stem from TinnyBoy

 

Hey AZSAND do the pro tapers have more than one bend? if so which one did you get? Thanks

 

HEY SORRY dsjockey i should have told you guy's they have there bends i used the med bend.almost a perfect match for the stock bars just a little wider in the bottoms.thats the [pro taper med.bend gold series]later

ps calds650 i will be changing my stem soon too. when i seen the stock stem i laughed,i cried,i set in amazement. and then decided it must go

 

I have Timmy Boy +1 stem, but even before that I never had a problem with my Renthal Fat Bars.

 

I just installed a Diamond G anti-vibe steering stem (chrome) and renthal pro tapers (CR bend)Great set-up!Although getting the stock steering stem out was tricky!

Thanks AZSAND

 

AZSAND,
Wish things were going better I stripped down the case's to get them polished and I found 3 cracks [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img] they are around the bottom front motor mount. None of them are visible(on the inside)or go through to the inside, but will have my machinist see if they can be welded. If not then looks like I will need new case's! Seems lately every step forward puts me 2 steps behind [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]
