« on: January 10, 2011, 11:35:22 PM »
Hi
Does anyone have the dimensions for standard CB500K1 handlebars and maybe where can I get the same?

Yes but what bars? Is there an equivalent OEM still obtainable?
David Silver and CMSNL both indicate not obtainable.

I have a k1500/4 with the  stock bars, can probably measure them if I can find them that is! bike is in an attic in boxes so will not be fast I'm afraid..............
Got a 500/4 with rust and a sidecar and loadsa bits. nice and original and been round the clock
