Any one tried this throttle

there are shops that have sales too, that dont sell on ebay etc
some bike shops discount their old stock too, when their new models etc come in.
places like Peter Stevens Clearance Centres, Torpedo7.com.au and heaps of others
it pays to ring around and see what you can find


as mentioned above, do you have 1 1/8th (or 28mm, measured at the risers/clamps) bars now ?
if you currently have 7/8th bars, you will need a new set of clamps to suit the new fat bars.
there are adapters you can buy too, that convert your 22mm risers/clamps to 28mm,
but you need to know the dimensions of your current clamps.

i was just gonna drill the hole out on the clamps don't see anything wrong with it

 

[my67xr]

you must have a nice set of drill bits then,
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/28mm-HSS...H_DefaultDomain_15&hash=item43adb90773&_uhb=1
they would be at least $50 odd + each, for a decent brand drill bit in that size.
and a decent drill press and vise to drill it in,
any sideways movement while drilling will make you clamps not hold, or chew into your new bars when fitted
hit a bump and your bars will spin forwards or back etc

got drill bits at home and a drill press at school
im set

 

[my67xr]

cool, most people only have drill bits up to 13mm or 1/2"
you might need to find out how much under 28mm, the clamps are too

[xLOCOx]

740 ish end to end with a straight measurement.

wait you measured it?

 

[Cordogs]

Yeah 740mm across with about 90mm rise on them, plus with the new fat bar riser clamps you'll need. It brings them to the same hight as normal pro tapers.

I think rotn50 has still got a set of fat bars he looked at selling a while ago, real cheap too! Pretty sure there the same measurements as mine.
