anyone put clip ons on their V7 850 ?

Hi, just wondering if anyone here has put clip ons on to their V7 850?

I just fancy a different feel to the bike.

Many Thanks

quick update…I ordered the official clip on handlebars from Guzzi late April through the ever helpful Scooter Cafe in Maidenhead, got the phone call 2 weeks ago that they arrived from Italy. Mason did a great job yesterday installing them…it’s totally changed the look and handling of the bike for the better…I absolutely love them!

Today I also junked the OE Dunlop tyres and replaced them with Michelin Road Classics.

I am one very happy cafe racer Guzzista as it feels like I have a totally “new” 3-year old bike! :wink:

quick update, was able to totally remove the old handlebar clamp. The screws Guzzi supplied were a few mm short so sourced another couple of galvanised ones meaning the new crescent shaped little unit that covers the old scew holes fitted perfectly.

Riding position is perfect for me with the new clip ons, no pressure on the wrists at all, just a very slight bend in my elbows. I’m 5’9" or about 176cms in new money.

Cheers!
