'79 CB650 + inverted Clubmans [pics]
« on: June 24, 2009, 11:25:46 AM »
I installed the Clubman bars that I bought on the forum and decided the "normal" position was way too far forward for my liking without rearsets so I installed them inverted. The riding position is more aggressive than stock but not as extreme as it could be. I think it's pretty comfortable. Let me know what you think.

I've always thought upside-down clubmans look silly, but it's your bike so do what works for you.

Heh, I always thought "normal" Clubmans looked goofy; reminds me of an old floppy-eared cow we've got. :P I believe in function before form anyway. ;)

Thats how I put mine on the 80/81 drag bike.  Did it on it as they would hit the tank the right way.  I put them on my 350 many years ago that way and thought thats how they went. Pics of the 650 at my gallery.
