cb400f bars?
« on: September 19, 2009, 05:57:28 PM »
i'm looking for a set of the low rise handlebars for the earlier cb400f's.  i've only been able to find a pricey NOS piece, and i don't actually need the exact bars.  i'm just looking for the same rise and pullback.  i have a set of 'euro' bars from Z1, and i'm looking for something lower than those or 'superbike' bar dimensions.

any ideas?

If you don't buy the stock 75/76 handlebars make sure that what you buy doesn't slam up against the tank when you turn the handlebars...

i'm not using them for a 400, they're going on a cb350k4, don't think they will be a problem.

actually looking for something lower than the superbike bars, similar to the old bsa/triumph bars with the really low rise, but not flat.
