    Does anyone know if any triple clamps are compatible with the Suzi's? Id like to change my flat bar to some nice clip ons, and replace the old yoke with a machined billet style top triple clamp, but I cant seem to find any info on the net. Cheers!

    I made the one for the top clamp on my SL125/café from a 25mm thick piece of alloy that I got from a place in town that makes alloy truck bodies. Think it cost $20.00 from memory. I took the old top mount and the alloy piece to engineering place and they accurately bored the holes same as old one and cut to shape I had marked for $150.00. I had to file the edges and polish it, and tap the holes for the bolts. Anybody with a CNC milling machine would be able to do this for you.

    You may have to zoom in to get a good look at it.

    Thanks for the reply. After some more research, Im pretty certain that this:
    http://www.bullitcustomcycles.com/products/billet-parts/suzuki-gs450-billet-top-triple will fit. 33mm forks, fork spacing between 450 and 250 seems compatible from what Ive read, the only thing is its not arched, but shouldn't be a problem.
