Handle bar tube diameters.

Post by paul.neal.16 »

Just wondering if anybody would know the external diameter of the handle bar tubes?
Only asking because ive replaced them on my L model and everything seems to be loose when all the bolts and clamps are tight on both sides. I.E. The master cylinder, switch gear and the clutch lever all spin on the bar.

Cheers
Paul.

im almost certain its a standard 22mm handlebar, or 7/8" in old money...

Switch gear has pins that locate in a hole on the bar, but if the master cylinder is doing it then something isn't right. Im pretty certain there is no particular way round the clamps go so perhaps u have the wrong size bars??? Can you get a piccie up?
