OK...I'm swallowing my pride...
What freaking way do Clubman handlebars get installed???
I bought the Bikemaster clubmans from Chapparal Motorsports
Do the bars DROP below the clamp, or should they come up above?
I am trying to install on my '78 CB400TII Hawk, and am having one he!!uva time with cables, brake line, etc.
Thanks.

mount them however they're comfortable for you
I put mine under... really under:

Yeah, I've been following your build...it's part of the encouragement I use each day!
I tried to mount 'em real low...just didn't happen.
Flipped 'em and now they work great, look awesome, and ride even better.
Thanks!

clubmans should mount so that the curved part of the bar where your grips are is below the handlebar mount.

I was just thinking about getting some cooler euro/streetfighter type bars for my nighthawk, where did you find those bars?

OK, so I've got mine on upside down. Couldn't do it any other way...brake lines and cables got all in the way.
Still looks good though.
