Pre-drilled handlebars?

[souperman]

Can you guys link a retailer where you're getting clubmans that are hollow all the way through? I was under the impression that most of the ones out there use 3 pieces of tube so there is a solid wall at the 90 degree bend.

Tim, that wiring reminds me of that Sat. Night Live skit, "Home Improvement, with the Anal-Retentive Carpenter"
Whoever ends up owning your bike 25 yrs down the road is going to love you.



Souperman, I just order them from my local honda dealer online. I believe they just use Tucker Rocky as their aftermarket distributor. You can get a 20% discount off their prices if you know the secret handshake. The brand I got is BikeMaster. They are thicker than I was expecting, but the weld isn't the prettiest I've seen. But for $18, I'm not complaining.

I pick them up at the dealer so I don't pay shipping. Check with your local dealer.

Finally got it back together tonight. Gonna ride to work tomorrow even though it's only going to be 45°.

Yea, Tucker Rocky clubmans are hollow all the way through.

I'm guessing most are though. Seems to me it'd be poor design otherwise 'cause the inside would be prone to rusting, no?

Flug,

Where did you find clubmans for $18?

 

[XXGABEXX]

Does $18.95 count?

Ask, and I shall receive! I didn't think about shipping, yikes

Yea, I went Flug's route and ordered through a friend when he worked at a Scooter shop; $20 even.

I ordered through the link in my last post. Got 20% off. Picked them up at the dealer so no shipping. That would be $20 even, but for some reason, I thought they were $18. Oh well. It was part of a bigger order so I'm not sure.
