dave-<< Done this and the shifters wont fit in! any one got any ideas.

Small flexhone, drill and lots of time to make the ID larger. May try to remove part of the
expanding weder thingys that help to tighten the shifters. may need to grind the main bolt down as
well..to get to fit into the bar-Shades of Scotts!!!

Done this several times. Use a dremel tool with coarse grit sanding wheels. Run in, out, and around
the ID until they fit. Samll amount of cutting oil might help. You may also use a file on the
expander bolt portions and rings of the bar-cons but this option is not as clean as the first.

Regards Chris
