Hello everyone. Need a bit of help..
I want to change up my 2012 V7R into more of a scrambler/tracker style V7, which will give me way more seat time and daily use. I've ridden it in it's V7R Cafe guise since i have owned it and it's not as comfortable for me any longer as a cafe style bike.
I want to throw on some Renthal dirt bike bars and will need new bar clamps to accommodate them. Bars are easy, clamps I cant seem to find...
Tires are also possibly going to be a set of Heidneau K60 Scouts or the Pirelli MT's.
Motostrada in the U.K have a build from which I am drawing all my inspiration. I love this bike..drool.

I would recommend to purchase the OEM/stock risers and all related bushings (rubber and sleeve) off of the Stone, Classic, etc. This will make it plug and play for 7/8" bars. If you want the fatter 1-1/8" Moto-x style bars, I would still purchase the rubber bushes and sleeve.
 
I agree with Todd on this one (and I think he can probably get the parts for you). I went the other route and purchased some non-oem risers. I fabricated bushings from some tubing I purchased from McMaster. In the end I think purchasing oem would have been the better route. I've also seen someone who drilled out the aluminum spacers in the holes on the V7R but I think having the rubber isolation is better. I went with drag bars on mine and it is a much better position for me. Still somewhat low but upright enough it isn't bothering my wrists and back like the clip ons did.
