No the pin sits way up in the slot. ,almost to the top if it. If you look under the top fork plate (tripple tree) there is a pinch bolt. That is what holds the handlebars in the neck. Loosen it, install the bars, then tighten the pinch bolt real good. ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- i thought i had it, but still have a little play. i guess i wil have to try welding the slots a bit. what holds the bars in? they seem to just drive down into the fork stem with nothing to make them stay there. and as near as i can measure when they are all the way down to the weld the cross pin is just barely up in the slot. is this right? |
