    Nice bike and once sorted you will love it,I have a 1978 r80/7 and it has the high wide bars fitted and it makes the bike alot nicer to ride.
    Take care.

      Later on down the line I might change them but for now I kinda like the fact none of my mates want to take it for a spin due to how narrow the bars are 😅

    Looks a nice machine, despite small issues (stands etc). I think I’d put wider bars on it though - surely they’ve been cut down or are non-standard? Wider bars = more room for more gadgets! Nice series, thanks. Les

    • @BigPezza
      @BigPezza  Před 5 měsíci

      they are the stock bars i was thinking of swapping over the wider ones but if the police had them like this, then i should be able to get used to them as well

  • @markfortin8286
    @markfortin8286 Před 5 měsíci

    I understand the appeal of keeping it stock, but if it improves the feel of the bike, I’d go for wider bars. Either way, it’s great that you’ve got it up and running!

    • @BigPezza
      @BigPezza  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Wide bars means I would have to change the clutch cable and re do the throttle cables and then re sync the carbs 😅 so I am gonna leave them for now

    Great stuff young fella, good to see the bike out on the road. I would definitely put wider bars on to give better control. I am a short arse, just wonder how tall you are. ??

    First time I went on a longer ride with my current bike, I saw another one, of the same model, parked in a store, I stopped at, for a meal. It's not that common bike, in these parts of the world.
