replacing LS bars
« on: April 19, 2015, 03:45:59 AM »
As my back and wrists are a little buggered from falling far to often on race tracks and I have a spare instruments cowl for my LS in my stash, I'm thinking about putting a set of K75c or half rise bars on her for the Welsh National Rally next month to take the stress off my damaged wrist.  Am I right in saying that I'll not need to swap over the LHS switch gear?

Cables and hoses are not a problem as I have them covered.

Thanks

Ought to be good to go. Horn, hi-low headlamp and turn sigs should be all same-all same. Wire harness length?

Cheers Monte, thought as much, and yes wiring length. I've just done a bit of looking on Motorworks site and the LS RHS switch gear is 23cm, and the half rise is 38cm long, will phone and order in the morning.
