Plate is 5mm.Alan CF wrote:Fantastic, would anyone who has bought one, please give us the thickness of the plate supplied, plus how much you had to cut from the leg shields,cooter wrote:15mm in stainless and alloy, 20mm in mild
Then we can get the correct size plates cut, Thanks.
Can't tell you about the trimming as I've not fitted it yet - I can't get the bloody steering head nut off? What bloody tool do you need?
Sorry. I'm a noob and a numpty...

Re: Handlebar Conversion Kit
Thanks for the info, 5mm, that is a tad thin, anyway, back to your nut, your going to have to drift it round with a flat end pin punch and a hammer,
unless someones got the link to a long reach castle nut tool, as most C spanners are a pain to fit.

Re: Handlebar Conversion Kit
Sorry I'm so late to pick this thread up... I made my own one, to fit a 12v bike.
It attaches to the piece that bolts in sideways through the fork. I had intended to use counter bored holes with nuts under the risers, but the colleague who did the machining/cutting didn't have the means, so the risers bolt in to threaded holes.
Here's some pics
I drew this up on CAD during a lunch break and have a drawing for it if anyone's interested...

Re: Handlebar Conversion Kit
Hi Badhand,
yeah, it is a chunk, aluminium though... I wanted it thick enough for a nut underneath the handle bar risers to be fully enclosed. However, ended up screwing straight into it instead.
I've got a whole bike pic in my project thread: here

I'm happy to share the drawing, if you want it please pm me your email address.
I must state that I drew it for myself to use on my bike, with the risers I already had. It may need further work to fit other bikes and I can't accept any responsibility for anyone deciding to use it. The drawing is for guidance purposes only.
Sorry to be a bore, but you can't be too careful!
