Title: Bar clamps
Post by: Nebuchernezzer on 13 November 2014, 02:53:27 am
Does anyone know if FZ1 and FZS600 bar clamps are interchangable?


I want to move my bars forward a bit (i'll be removing the fairing so clearance isn't an issue), vertical risers would be good.
Saw these for FZ1, reasonable price, just the bolt spacing that could be a bit iffy.

If they don't fit what clamps have other guys used?

Found some pics with some very borderline useful measurements at least...

If your using the standard bars, then they might just fit........ Just!
 
When you fit Renthal 758's to the standard risers, they only just clear the fairing by a hair.
The gyt risers look pretty cool tbh, but if you look carefully, they're set back slightly, and might be a better option than fz1 risers which are massive and square on to the mounting holes.

I've got a current Street triple headlight that's going on so don't care about the fairing.  I've got some kind of standard diameter after market bars on there now which I'll be keeping.
I want somthing half way between what I have now with huge setback and clip ons.

I've seen streety lights on another Fazer somewhere, and it looked really cool! Get some photos on here when you finish it, I'm intrigued! 8)

I've done a paint bucket mock up just so I can visualise my plans a bit,  it's on my work pc but I'll post it up later.
Was thinking about making some rad covers at the same time but undecided on that.
