Where to buy 7/8 handle bars for my 78 750??
« on: January 07, 2009, 09:58:25 am »
I have searched and have not found anything of significance. :-\ :-\

I have a 78 750 and I would like to replace the 7/8 handlebars. Anyone know where can get replicas in the 7/8 size. I'm also not 100% sure of how you measure the exact dimensions or the bars.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. :)

Thanks in Advance

Other more knowledgeable folks here will be able to give you exact guidance about the 'stock' bend. But if you go to your local motorcycle emporium they will be able to show you catalogues with any style of 'bar you could want, from clip-ons throughgh 'ace' bars, to 'superbike' and high-rise.

I went to my local dealer with an idea of what I wanted for Sophie and ended up with exactly that. And not too expensive too.

I am diggin' the controllers on that site.  I belive Mr. Breeze has them on his and has the wiring configuration on a thread somewhere here.
I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.
