LSL HANDLEBAR ADAPTERS XBR500
« on: July 15, 2018, 11:40:07 AM »
The XBR i bought early last year had some pretty crude home made handlebar adapters on which i have never been happy with the look or feel of. After much prevarication i finally ordered up a pair from Germany and while not cheap they are well made and have considerably improved the look and feel of my bike.

Yes Tommy-they are expensive for what they are .I don't suppose the exchange rate with the euro helps either.

Well it's looking like I'll have to buy a pair of these fancy smancy risers as yet again it looks like I'm going to be let down with my cnc yoke conversion for the tracker project, which I AM DEFO taking to the Stafford show. Just not quite with the front end I'd have hoped 😥😥

Well Michael as i said before they are quality items but on the pricey side for what they are.

Evening Martin, the LSL riser kit, are they a two piece affair or a one piece ??
The cheapest I've found so far are £175 is that the kind of money you had to spend?
Cheers, Michael

Evening Michael. Mine came in two pieces and if i recall rightly were approx £125 . I think I got them from Germany. I'll check and revert back if I'm wrong. Martin

Many thanks Martin, although it's looking at the moment like I might be back on track with sorting some fancy smancy cnc yokes again... fingers crossed, 🤞🤞
Cheers, Michael

Yes the price was about right + postage of £19! from Europe -  i think the even poorer exchange rate may have pushed the price even higher?Looking at my first post I see that i did say they were from Germany. Good luck with the project anyway.
