I have noticed a lot of moto handlebars some in 7/8" bar diameter and this should fit the classic stem - but has anyone done it?

Re: Anyone put motorcycle bars on thier builds?

I used a set of yard sale clubman bars on my BO7 bike Flex-Liner 7.
I'd post a pic, but photobucket is acting up.

7/8" motorcycle bars work great with BMX stems. I have a set of aluminum motorcycle handlebars on my Murray klunker...

Re: Anyone put motorcycle bars on thier builds?

I have a set of bars off of a Kawasaki dirtbike, they are 7/8" and steel and are actually lighter than a set of bars off of a 24" DK Fury BMX cruiser. I found these Moose bars at my local motorcycle store the other day and picked them up for $18.00:

As said work great with BMX stems, the bars are usually nice and wide too.

'81 Laguna Cruiser with Yamaha DT-1 (Repop) bars. Great bars for a cruiser. Nice sweep for natural wrist position but width (34") keeps is from feeling cramped.

I saw this thread and immediately thought of you. Love that worksman.
 
I put a set of Renthal bars on my 26" BMX cruiser. I love the cross brace pieces. Now I'm always on the lookout for cool motorcycle handle bars. If the price is right. Gary
