    WTB: Kickstand, 80's Style Handlebars, Clamp/Triple Tree

    I know this must sound sacreligious to most, but I really like the look of the handlebars used on the 80's CT70's. Has the reinforcement bar between the two tubes. Will need the clamp too, I imagine. Even though mine is a 1970 model, I want the newer bars if anyone has a set. Will trade my folding bars if anyone wants to do it that way.
    Also need a kickstand.

    I believe these bars are still available from standard honda parts dealers, as the vintage places don't sell them. you'll need the clamps as well

    K0 upper trees don't interchange with any of the later types. You'll either need to use a later front end, with the two-piece upper tree/handlebar clamp or undertake some major engineering & machining to make a custom upper tree. Ideally, you want a `79 or later upper tree; these have the correct spacing for the bar clamps.

    Are you doing a custom bike? You may want to look at XR100 bars. I got a set for my custom 70, added some ATC70 mounts to a flat, chrome triple tree, and it looks like it's going to work out well. The bars don't rise as much as the later 70 bars, but have a good feel to them. Just a thought.
