    Does any body make a handlebar like this?

    Just thinking out loud but can you get a handlebar that is like a normal road bar with rise but instead of rising like a Motocross bar it lowers?

    Something like this, but they are out of stock. http://www.cycletreads.co.nz/product...justable_.aspx

    So kinda like a clipon down angle but with raise. if that makes any sense.

    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Short risers with drag bars are very comfortable,achieve much the same thing an look heaps better,,,IMHO.

    Or if you have to use Laverda bars.

    Also do a Google for 'laverda jota bars'

    Multi adjustable from low clips on to a low rise upright bar - the angles are adjustable separately so a huge number of positions to find that perfect fit!

    Link to a Aussie site here BUT I am sure I have seen them cheaper ex UK.

    I have the same type of clubman bars on mine, they look fantastic. I liken it to a bull. The only thing is you have to make sure your speedo cluster doesn't get in the way of them.

    you'll probably find you can order some through your local shop easily enough - they'll have a catalogue you can flick through.

    What bike is it for?
