I am having a hellish to do with this bike. While hauling this 1984 Aspencade home, I managed to bend the handlebars!:gunhead:I got a set from a seller on ebay who said they will fit all 1200s from 84-87, only to discover that they were too big in diameter where they mount at the clamps!! The original set is the same diameter from end to end, even at the mount points. The set the seller sent me is a three piece welded design with a tamper on each side a little before the hand controls. He sent me a set of 1100 bars, which was the same diameter as the original, but the rise and length are too short. I ordered a set from the local Honda dealer and when they arrived,they were identical to the first set I bought on ebay. Has anyone ran into this problem? I thought about changing the triple tree, but now I am worried that the fork diameters couldbe different. The seller is checking into thetree for me now. The dealer wants $190, without the nuts and bolts. Any suggestions? Thanks!
