    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Seeing that Z1 has me a bit gun shy to place an order for their Euro style chrome bars, I am asking for info on chrome bars as close to original Cooley bars OR if someone actually has a set i would be a buyer. This is one of the last bits i need for te red clone project. Thanks
 
Wondering if you do ebay? a few Euro style chrome on there. Different brands may be a little different, but most about the same.
 
Superbike bend is better. Less grip sweep back
 
I remember purchasing a set of superbike bars on eBay many years ago. They actually came with a little decal that had Wes Cooley's signature. Thinking maybe they were Emglo, but not sure. I do know they were spot on, as I had originals as well.

That's what I've used for last 30 years on my 1000. Between those and the wonderful Suzuki seat it is really an all day motorcycle.
 
From what i can tell from the originals on the blue Cooley im needing something in the range of a 3 1/2 to 4 inch rise and a 4 inch pull back. Haven found any close to these numbers. Some are 2 1/2 rise but im not wanting to be leaning forward because of too low a rise ratio.
