Default adjusting the handlebars?

i was just wondering if there was a way to adjust the angle of the handlebars. i can move them a little bit when i loosen the bolt, but i was wonderin if there might be a way to make more of an adjustment. it seems like they are angled in way too far!! thanks for the advise as always

You'd have to cut off the big tab thing to make them angle adjustable.

No, but they're more for safety just incase you didn't tighten the bolts holding them on. Same with the little rings on top of the forks.

See if you can get hold of an Italian bike for a few hours, once you get back on the CBR you'll think your riding a cruiser. I've seen adapters (risers) for different bikes, so do a bit of research.
