Diablo,
Velkomen, My In-laws live in Bergen. Where do you live? I have seen that Norway has a pretty active vintage racing scene there.
Have fun with the little bike. They are pretty cool.

thanks for the velkomen anyway!!!

ok, wat bars shud i get? clubman? i know most of u dont like them.. but they are easier to get than clip ons for me... or just flat bars?

rearsets. you should get rearsets before you consider any kind of bars lower than a drag bar. Clubmans are not bad on small bikes (this coming from the guy who hates clubmans) but on the bigger machines they become more trouble than they are worth. Anyway, without the proper foot positioning, any low bars would turn your bike into a torture rack.

any 7/8th" bar should work. Generic 7/8" bars are you best bet, any motorcycle shop should have them. If you are unsure, measure the bars on there now.

If you turn those stockers upside down, they may hit the tank but they will definatly be too low.
