Default Riser Bars from VFR-Black - $150 + shipping

I just took these off a 1990 CBR1000F. The prior owner put them on. I liked them a lot because they were very comfortable. My son wanted the stock bars back on for the more "boy racer" effect.

They have all the factory nubs and detentes for your standard switchgear. Just take out the single attaching bolt and the bar ends, and use them on these.

Your hands will now rest 2" above the stock bar location and 1" closer to you.

If it was me, I would wash them up and give them a new coat of quality spray paint.





When I bought I bike I wanted a set of these for myself, and they were over $300 US. So I didn't do it. I will sell these for $150. They are hard to find at any discount.

I will mail them anywhere, when paid with paypal, and buyer pays shipping. I will box them for free. Thanks.

Sorry, being simple here: Does this: "41 Honda CBR-1000F "Hurricane" (87-91, 93-96)" mean that the tubes are 41 millimeters in diameter?

And so you could put these bars on any of the other 41 mm bikes listed?

Man, if that's true you could make a cafe racer out of a lot of different bikes with these.

1) Tubes are 41 mm yes

2) In some but not all cases , depends on the offset and
rise as you can get into having to go with custom extended
brake / throttle / clutch lines other factors at play also depending
on the bars used and method of attachment.

Interesting. Just calculated UPS shipping to Hobart, Tazmania, Australia. $175 US. Hard to believe.

That's why UPS sucks.
