A set of these and a set of renthals. watch the length of all the cables (throttles, choke, clutch, switchgear).

the top yoke from an ntv should bolt right up. its already got clamps for any straight bar and u wont have to drill anything. u will need longer cables. clutch and throttle can be made up or taken from a vt600. choke is a problem, but i chopped and shortened mine back to the frame.
