Upgrade your cockpit and save your wrists with the ProTaper Universal Rubber Bar Mount Conversion Kit, specifically engineered to isolate punishing trail vibration. This premium conversion system serves as a direct adapter, allowing you to seamlessly mount robust oversized 1-1/8" handlebars onto your factory 7/8" rubber-mounted triple clamps. By stepping up to an oversized fat-bar profile, you eliminate unwanted bar flex under heavy loads while opening up a huge selection of premium pro-level handlebars.
Part number 022822 is a highly versatile Universal Fitment component engineered for dirt bikes, dual-sport machines, and select street/adventure motorcycles. It is meticulously designed to seat securely into existing 7/8" (22mm) rubber-mounted handlebar perches that feature removable, bolt-through bottom clamps, adapting them up to accept a standard 1-1/8" (28.6mm) oversized handlebar center section. It is a verified compatible upgrade for:
CRITICAL INSTALLATION AND CLAMP CONFIGURATION NOTE:
Because these conversion adapters bolt directly into your original 7/8" lower perches, they will physically **raise your total handlebar height by approximately 3/4" (19mm)**. While this slight rise delivers a highly desirable, more comfortable upright ergonomic posture for most riders, please verify that your machine's stock throttle cables, clutch lines, and front brake hoses have enough free slack to accommodate a 3/4" height increase at a full left-to-right steering lock. Additionally, this kit is designed strictly for **rubber-mounted triple clamps** featuring separate, removable bottom perches; it will not work properly on solid-mount top triple clamps where the bottom bar cradle is cast as a fixed, permanent part of the upper triple tree.
