...but when I went to adjust the headbearings, when I released the tension on the pinch bolt that crack showed up...not sure if it was from the braking problem I was having or if it was over torqued...

Charlie I got the "S" model to fit up with the crossroads bars, just need a longer brake hose and possibly an extension of the ignition switch wireing, still looking at the possibilities there, its not pretty at the moment but it will work until I can afford a new triple tree. Might look into an aftermarket one, might not haven't decided yet... |

Now might be a good time to switch to a "Helibar" setup. You get a new top clamp in the kit. Costs around $290. Got any pics of your "S bar" setup? Thanks JR |

That's the exact same spot where my triple tree cracked. Then again it happened when I went down. |

AZ28 I don't have the $300 to get the Helibars, as soon as I get the crossroads hooked back up and the new brakeline I will shoot pics. |

Guess you won't be selling your crossroads now Wycked? Glad you found your crack before it got hairy...like 1000 ft up on the edge in the Salt River Canyon!!! |

I am looking at maybe getting a set of clip-ons...if I do Brian I will sell you the crossroads still. |
