Flipping the handle bar mounts around - 1985CB450_imp - 10-09-2022 Well in my quest to get the bars as low and far forward as the stock mounts/tank will allow I decided to swap the bar mounts around as they have a pretty good offset I had already switched out the stock bar on my 2013 for an Emgo 7/8 Superbike bar Here is the Superbike bar with stock mount orientation Same bar with the mounts flipped By getting the bars just a little more forward I was able to rotate it more rearward giving it a perfect angle at the grips and plenty of tank clearance. Very happy with the end result Below shows tank clearance at full lock RE: Flipping the handle bar mounts around - GoldOxide_imp - 10-09-2022 Nicely done 1985CB450.

The bars on my RS are lower and to far forward so I'll look into this to see if flipping mine would bring the bars back a little.
