    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...

  • Returning Visitors

    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.

Clubman handlebar question

I bought some "clubman" bars from ebay, and they don't fit in typical clubman fashion. the fork tubes stick up through the top crown and have "air" valves on each one. is there a way to elimnate these or something so these bars will fit? should i just buy a new front set up? i will try and post pics soon for better info, i'm just trying to prevent having to mount them upside down...

thanks,

adam
 
Could you maybe loosen the fork tubes and rotate the air valves to another position that's not in the way? Maybe move them down slightly?
 
Can you drop the fork tubes down a bit? That'll only work if they're already raised somewhat, but it's worth mentioning.

"Barring" that, you could get risers for your handlebar clamp for more clearance (http://store.azmusa.com/genrisoncat.html), or go with Progressive fork springs and find some fork caps without air valves (or modify yours).
