Top-end Rebuild, Part 8


While I'm waiting on parts I am doing some deep cleaning and other adjustments
that I have been wanting to do, specifically adjusting the handlebar. I didn't like
the position that I had them in, also, I couldn't get the clamps to tighten
enough to hold them in place.
So, here is my attempt to secure the handlebar. I drilled and tapped the top
saddle clamp for a set screw. I positioned the handlebar where I wanted, tightened
the clamps down almost tight, then ran the set screw down as far as possible,
then gave the clamps a final tightening. I think it's going to work great.
