Verlicchi bars on a LM2

[Stevex]

Just received a pair of Verlicchi swan neck bars from Charlie to fit to my LM2.
They're for 38mm forks so I've made some sleeves for the 35mm forks.
I also bought some used headlight supports to modify to fit the Verlicchis as I wanted the oems left as standard just in case. Guzzi clip ons mounts are 37mm high and the Verlicchis are 42mm, so I tapped out the cups that hold the rubber mounts to the brackets, cut them down by 5mm and refitted the cups. I removed the fairing and clocks to get the top yoke off and have done a trial fit of the bars with modded headlight brackets and it all looks good.
Brackets and Verlicchi mounts going to get a lick of paint in satin black, then I'll rebuild it all. Yet to see if I'll need longer throttle cables or brake pipes but hopefully with some re routing I can manage with what I've got.

Getting there.
Brake hose length looking good.
Throttle cable should be good once move over the right of the head stock, no so sure about the clutch cable but I can get a custom made one if required.
Oil changed in the RC36 cartridged oem forks.

A T3 cable is approx. 2" longer and might be long enough. Dimension in the link I posted in your other thread.

Finally finished fitting the swan necks to my LM2.
Quiet a few fiddly bits and pieces required doing to hopefully make it look like a decent upgrade.
Not ridden yet but just sitting on the bike, those bars will make such a difference, not just to the riding position but the reduced effort in steering.

Finally got out for rides over the last week.
Who would have thought a pair of handle bars could make so much difference.
The bike has become a pleasure to ride, comfortable and it is so much easier to control.
It no longer feels like I'm trying to steer a barge. I wish I'd gone down this route years ago.
The only thing I think I need to do is get the chrome Cerakoted to a satin black.
