I'm sure that Nobbie is conversant with using the other holes... Isn't that how he made it through Grad school?
BTW, what Renthals didja get Nobster? I tweaked the left side of my bars and am looking at replacing. Trying to find some new levers and some other bits and bobs to make Andiamo all purty and sweet again.

Havin a bit of bother lining the gits up since I fell off. I think they're right but its a mental thing. Got a big juicey Renthal badge hid under the top clamp with all the alingment marks on it. The steerings true, I just think the bars are slightly on the skunt.

Fatbars in Titanium, 603's I think. Same height but straighter so I lean forward a bit more. Great improvement.

Might be worth looking at Shiver/Mana/Dorso etc.
A year or two back a lad on AF1 wanted to go the other way and asked me to measure the two bikes up (we had both back then) The bolts are wider spaced both ways on a Tuoldo.

Silly question nob. How tall are you? My big problem is to much lean equals to much pain in the right arm. I'm pretty ******* happy with the bars ergos as they are. I'm going to look around and see what other colours the bars come in. Blue to match some Pazzo levers I want to order? Red to match the tank aprilia emblem, or just good ol' matte black.

Went to the site and fed in my particulars and it said no bars to be found. I think that I may go for the black as trying to match the blue of the Pazzos is going to be a pain in the ***. I'll wander over to my fave bike shop on the weekend and see what they have to get a feel. Thanks mate.

If you have a look at B&C Express website - they stock a range of Renthal Fatbars, and have the dimensions etc. I used the 672 on my Tuoldo - it was about 10mm lower and helps keep a little more weight on the front for those trackdays. They are a good bit wider though, I chopped about 1½" off each end.

I've enough ballast that I haven't to many difficulties keeping the front end doon when I want. I AM filing away all the numbers so that I can ask questions at the bike shop this weekend.

It's a VERY old picture - I think it would be more "eclipse" than moon if I did it now.

That does look the canines crackers, Nob... And I am converted to the Ti look as it matches up with the rest of the trim. As far as wider goes, that might be nice. The bars now have a tendency to make my shoulders feel hunched together... I'll be able to sit up and stretch a tad!
