Topic: Clubman bars without rear sets?

[seaweb11]

I have 2 - 750's with clubman style bars.
My 78K has stock pegs and I ride long distances from time to time. Works well for me. 6' 2" 185lbs
The 72K has rear sets and is fast fun, but not for any real hwy time.

Wow..I love the wheels. Are those stock SS wheels? I love how you painted them.

I'm pretty sure that they're stock. I was lucky that they came on it. They even had that paint. I probably would have painted them solid black if I had it done, but I like it the way they are.

Those are stock rims.  Paintjob isn't but the wheels are.

  I'll add my experience.  I've got a 550 with non-adjustable clubmans and I've taken pretty long rides on it, +200 miles.  I can feel it in my lower back, but ab and lower back exercises help, not to mention shoulders.  I'm right at 5'11", 32" inseam, and about 192lbs.  After the long rides I think my throttle hand is the most noticable bother, it gets pretty buzzy.  I think a lighter throttle return spring and a bar end weight on that side would help tremendously.

Just picked up a 750k3 that has vintage Tommaselli clip ons that are looooooow with no rear sets.  I'm about 6' and the setup seems to be comfortable.

Nice! Hopefully my throttle cables will be in today and I'll get to take it out sometime this week. It's supposed to be in the upper 50's this weekend here!

I know this is a super old topic, but I thought I'd throw my .02 in.

I have a 71 CB750 with clubman bars and stock foot pegs.  I'm also about 6'1" and I consider it very comfortable.  I'm not a huge fan of being super upright or super leaned over.  For me it's a great balance of comfort while still feeling like I'm in control.  In fact, I don't think I'd like rear sets as they'd point my knee down more and give me more of that laying on my stomach feel... which I'm sure is fine if you're racing or Batman or something, but I like the position I'm in very much. 

I've noticed a bit of difference in clubman bars though, so it may not hold for all manufacturers and sizes.

I've run clip-ons with stock mid controls for years, not uncomfortable at all to me
