That’s makes sense. I was thinking that they looked surprisingly normal for aftermarket, but now I see they are just a transplant from a family member.The bars are from a V7 Stone, thanks

haha yes that s right, and the 'transplant' was quite easyThat’s makes sense. I was thinking that they looked surprisingly normal for aftermarket, but now I see they are just a transplant from a family member.
I put the new bar on top first to take some photos to show the differences ...

Ha, looks funny with both sets mounted.
Do you have to take the TT off or could you loosen both trees and slide the forks down enough to get the clip on’s off then slide the forks up, tighten the trees and you’re golden .
You don’t need to take anything off,
Loosen the TT clamping bolts and slowly raise the front of the bike as you carefully slide the forks down far enough to remove the clip on’s., then very carefully lower the bike lining up the forks as you do.
Using a scissor jack will allow you to lower the bike as slowly as you need to as you line up the forks for reassembly.
Do you know if clip-ons from racer can be removed and replaced without dropping forks down?You don’t need to take anything off,

I am new here. Can you please tell what needs to be changed to change clip ons from a Racer to Stone upright bars?haha yes that s right, and the 'transplant' was quite easy
I am new here. Can you please tell what needs to be changed to change clip ons from a Racer to Stone upright bars?
I know I need a new riser and bars of course, maybe clutch cable.
Do the rear pegs need to be changed??
Thanks in advance.

If you do not want to drop the forks down you will need to pull off the top triple clamp. That is the way I did it.Do you know if clip-ons from racer can be removed and replaced without dropping forks down?
Thanks. Chris
If you go from Racer clip ons to the bars I did, it is much easier than going all the way to Stone upright bars. Going all the way to the Stone bars would most likely require:I am new here. Can you please tell what needs to be changed to change clip ons from a Racer to Stone upright bars?

Thanks for the info. What exactly is the bar that you went to? Is it available at the Guzzi Tech store? Thanks. ChrisIf you go from Racer clip ons to the bars I did, it is much easier than going all the way to Stone upright bars. Going all the way to the Stone bars would most likely require:
- longer front brake hose
- Stone clutch cable
- Stone throttle cables
- All electrical switch gear from the stone (or make up wire extensions)
You can leave the Racer rear pegs as-is but the ergos might be a bit odd. Switching the Racer pegs to Stones is just too crazy expensive ... be best to sell the Racer and buy a Stone.
The bar I switched to made a dramatic improvement to riding comfort for me. And even the stock Racer clutch cable is long enough.
