I'm sure they'd fit. Almost all 500cc and larger Hondas with 7/8" bars use the same bolt spacing for the past 30+ years. The number of models they omitted is probably 100 times what they had space to list.

That could be. I'll give them a call and confirm these things will fit and look cosmetically like part of the bike.

Thanks for your help.

I have raised the bars on pretty much every bike I've ever owned using 1/2 in. drive sockets of various lengths as spacers. They're uniformly round, chrome, strong steel and almost invisible when installed. A longer bolt to fit, and you're in.

Could you post a photo of this please? I am interested in it, but can't visualize what you are doing. Thanks Thanks

As it happens, I don't have a photo of such, and haven't done it to the CB or the Suzi. Place the sockets between the triple tree and the bar mount.

Thanks
