You can clip individual bars onto the forks below the top yoke, or have a look at "clubman bars". ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

You mean that bit of the forks you cant see, hidden behind the fairing..
I suppose if you took that off.. maybe fitted a Cafe style half fairing or headlamp cowl...

But then there probably wouldn't be a lot of space between the bars and the tank at full lock, to dodge trapped fingers..... I suppose you could get a ball-peen hammer and bash some scollops in it....

Or just buy an alloy Cafe tank that already has them....
Of course that would mean the seat wouldn't fit.... hmmm....

That would sory of leave the back end a bit messy, and nothing covering the back wheel, or giving space to attach the number-plate.....
But what the heck! Swap enough parts you could almost end up with something like....

RickRaff? The answer is that anything is possible with enough money, ingenuity, spanners, and a big hammer..... whether its a good idea or not, is an entirely different matter! ____________________ My Webby'Tef's-tQ, loads of stuff about my bikes, my Land-Rovers, and the stuff I do with them!
