Topic: Who is running modern hand controls?

[rocs]

What modern controls is everyone using? OEM or aftermarket?

Looking to see what options there are for a build I'm working on

[bwaller]

I used 600F2 switches on one 550 I build. Are those still considered modern! 

[calj737]

Momentary switches. They only way to go in my opinion.

I bought some stock Harley controls. I liked the turns for left and right.

How do you mount 1 inch bars for Hogley controls?

I've used stock CBR600RR signals and K&S Technologies switches on different projects  http://www.kandstech.com/index.php?page=switchescontrols

I am running modern controls on both my CB450 and CB750. the 450 came with a mangled and partially melted harness and the 750 was just missing anything. I used CBR 600 F4i control switches and very highly modified main harness on both bikes, the 450 is a simple setup with no relays or anything fancy while my 750 is setup a little more complicated with some relays and fancier fuse boxes.

I rum CBR 1100 start\kill switch and CBR 900 front brake master cylinder, no blinkers on my 550.

What's going on with that bike? Haha
With the cork, the headlight and the upside down clubmans I really want to see the whole thing!

I'm about 6'4" so the bars are way to low the other way. The cork is just an add on to the rat theme I guess, it fit so I stuffed it in there (the nut is from a different model Honda) and I used a 750 lower tree for the head light bracket, the guy I picked it from had removed the stem to do a front end swap on his 750. I just welded a washer on it and turned it around and bolted the light on

[DaveBarbier]

Love it. That bike definitely looks it has character...or is it leprosy...one of those, haha.

[Mitchell]

Lol! You better watch out I hear that stuffs highly contagious!!!!

Very carefully. Little wrap around the bars and a little extra wiring and poof..  modern

On Dorothy I used 06 or so R6 controls, they were cheap and reliable  - originals literally disintegrated.

[Mitchell]

A cb450 top tree will line you and work with a 750 lower tree and 750 forks. They have removable handle bar risers. That's what the chopper guys put on there 750s and change out the risers to run 1" bars so the Harley controls will fit

Yami FZ06 used the earlier std forks used on earlier R6 before the R6 changed to an USD fork design.  The FZ06 used a pair of handlebars instead of the clip-ons design like the R6.  So, you can change the top triple on a R6 std forks to the FZ06 to use handlebar  or you can use clip on with R6 top triple.  The handlebar size is 7/8, not 1 inch.

The other interesting tidbit is the FZ06 went to quad piston from dual piston calipers around 06 or 07 and they bolt up to the forks perfectly.  They have a silver anodized huge puck in the exposed faceinstead of the blue anodized ones in the R6 quad piston calipers.  FunJimmy used the R6 calipers on his bike for a long time before switching to Brembo I believe.
