Hi ALL, i'm looking to get some black clip-on style handlebars. I was originally gonna go with a clubman style bar but, really like the way clip-ons are so low.

I noticed that there are 33mm, 36mm, and some 38mm Sizes available. Does anyone know which size is right to fit a 77 kz650 like mine? any feedback is much appreciated!

Thinking measurement refers to the diameter of fork tube.
Would use a caliper to measure the fork tube diameter.

Good Fortune! :)

I believe the 650 will be 36mm like mine. It's just a hair under 1.5" so throw a tape against it for a rough measurement. Or like Patton said calipers to be certain.

The 250 might be 31mm IIRC, again, check as above.

Yeah i do believe it is diameter of fork where that type of handles go.

damarble i bet they would be the same as your 750.

I'll measure to confirm,

Those are what I got, but in chrome finish. I can't complain about the quality, not drool-inducing but no real faults. I wish they were about an inch longer, it's hard to fit everything on it.

You might check other sellers for a better price. Mine were $70 shipped, and I could have did $65 shipped out of China but I wanted to use a US seller.
