I bent the left handle bar. How do I fix it? can it be easily replaced. I was going to get clip ons, but didn't want to get a new triple tree clamp. Is it possible to use the oem triple clamp and just cut off the bars?
thanks in advanced...trying to get her up and running,
will

Stock R bars are about $22 each, pretty easy to replace.

Hex bolt from the top triple into the end of the bar that goes into it 6mm I think.

They're in stock here:

It is an SAE bolt, not a metric bolt. 5/16-18 I think. The handlebar is one of the Firebolt crossover parts on an 1125, thus the SAE thread.
