 This is what I started with, for 3000 yen I thought, "What the heck". |

 OK, here is the way the bike looked before I did the pipe handlebar conversion, these were "Helibars" so they were about an inch or so up from stock. |
 Here is the bike after the pipe bars installed, the fairing and windscreen cut. |
 Here I cut and pasted the old bar position onto the new one. It may not look like a huge difference in position, but it is. In the more upright position much more of your weight is off your hands, so your wrists don't suffer as much. |
|
 The view from the seat, the bars are about an inch wider on each side than the Helibars were. |
 View from the front, you are not seeing double, there are two top bridges there. |
 The bottom bridge is stock the top one is modified to take the pipe bars |
 To fit the top bridge with the pipe bar mounting points, I had to cut the piece off that held the ignition. |

| I guess I shall see how it goes from here. | |
