Seriously cool.  Would love to get the scans that you have, I have found NADA.  The bike looks great.  I have the same bars -- Since the bike is pretty much apart, I really don't have any idea how they are going to look or feel.  Are they worth a hoot?  I'm thinking about putting some Corsaro clip-ons instead.

Let me know what you need for the scans, etc.  I also have Adobe Acrobat and have scanned a 175GT parts book, it's searchable now.

PM me with your email address and I'll send the manual scans to you.

The handlebars are quite weird as you know. Not a normal tubular bar and clamp set-up but tubular bars welded to rings that ride on rubber isolators around the forks. The rings have a bar welded in between them to tie everything together. The parts manual shows lower 'bars, though not quite clip-ons.

The 3 1/2 That I was looking at is still for sale.  contact paparics <at> bellsouth <dot> com  He's about $5500 on it I think, and I believe it's a drum-brake model (which is best) -- but not sure.

Thanks, email sent.

Go figure :rolleyes: yesterday I bought a 78' Moto Morini 500, 10 minutes ago I got a text from the shipper confirming the bike has been picked up and will be at my door Sunday morning. Still for the right bike I will go for a 3 1/2 to go with the 500. The 500 came with a huge lot of parts that I need to sort through.
