Thinking of buying a set of Tarozzi 41mm low rise race clip ons.
Had a set on the Guzzi and they where fantastic. Multi adjustable.
Gonna fit them below the top triple clamp, so they will be roughly the same height and spread as the originals, extra advantage is that I can mount them above the triple clamp if I want to go touring

Bob,
I've got Harris clip ons, mounted below the top yoke. They improve the ride position, but are even better and really need a set of rearsets too. Also, I had a bit of a problem with them hitting the top edge of the side of the fairing or the tank so had to set them quite 'straight' to make sure there was no trapped thumbs. Throttle cable took a little bit of repositioning so it didn't catch the clocks, but not a big problem.

Bob I have tingates clip on's mounted under the triples and only had to raise the levers a little to fit and drill a hole to relocate control blocks (piece of p-ss)
and I travel any distance with'm on , it maybe a better ride position than standard bars?

Just a thought, but didnt Laverda bars used to be adjustable in both vertical and horizontal planes, and they wren't that expensive.

That was my other option Dave.
Had a set on my Katana 650 once when I tried to "italianize" it. They sure used to make the bike handle well! Looked good too!

Jota bars? don't think they're clip ons, just yoke mounted. Could be wrong though, it wouldn't be a suprise

The other option is Sansei clip ons - 10 deg angle, quick release option, though not as adjustable as the Tarozzis

Bob

Laverda adjustable bars are indeed yoke mounted. Somehow I doubt that they would be cheap, assuming that somebody still makes/sells them.

Here's a thought - buy a set with the rest of the Laverda still attached!

Gilles bars are good quality.

I Have the gp billet items on my rex nice riding position....

at least it was until i got a trapped nerve in my shoulder.
