    hi all

    i'm going to convert my gsx-r 600 k4 from clip-ons to a raise
    Handlebar, i've been watching for some conversion kit's and they are
    expensive, since i only need the top yoke.

    two question's

    Were can i buy a top yoke, ( lsl only sell the kit with all the stuff
    needed ) ...

    or since i have the possibility to make one top yoke, where can i find
    the measures of the oem top yoke, CAD drawing or pdf file or other.

    Thanks
    Jaime

    ebay.

    Go to your local Suzuki dealer with a tape measure and see if
    a Bandit yoke will fit. Then change your pseudonym to Apehangerman.

    Or a breaker. Must be loads of straight top yokes attached to bent
    forks, hanging around.
    Hog is your man for this - he put flat bars on his Gixxer Thou - in
    fact, he puts raisers and flat bars on everything.

    Don't bother with that, find out the width of the forks (I think
    they're
    50mm iirc) and then find something that has clip-ons with built in
    risers
    that are also the same size, eg Ducati SS are 50mm and look like this:

    That's give you a nice easy and cheap way to raise the bars if that's
    all you need to do.

    ABM conversion was what I used on a GSXR1000. Use a set of raask adjustable
    jota bars.
