I'm far from being a Honda rivet-counter but I think that they had a 4-2 system originally.
That looks like a 4-1 Motad, so should be a good 'un anyway.

bars feel like ape-hangers except at the wrong angle for the wrists.
Tis annoying innit.

Yup, I agree Cap'n, I Disagreed with the mighty Boo on this too. IMO chopper bars should ALWAYS follow the line of the forks, anything else is plain wrong!Capitano wrote: ↑Wed Apr 07, 2021 8:07 amEven Peter Fonda had his apes at the wrong angle!Diesel Dave wrote: ↑Wed Apr 07, 2021 6:43 amLooks better in the photo than in the flesh, but a bit of elbow grease won’t hurt.

I'm not into choppers, never had a liking for leathers with frills, or wearing chaps. But I agree, line of bars should follow forks. Those bar extenders look a bit dodgy as well. Saw Peter Fonda ride that up Goodwill hill a few times at the age of 70 plus, took 5 or 6 bystanders to catch him every time he stopped.Yup, I agree Cap'n, I Disagreed with the mighty Boo on this too.
