mikee Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 As above rellay. Would like to know how easy it is to fit a set of fat bars to a beta rev3 2000 or would it be easyer to fit a set of a newer year, say 2006-2007... thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrybaines Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 Depends on the top clamp on there to be honest. If the bottom half of the bar clamp is removable you can buy the correct size clamps easy enough to swap over and put new fat bars in. If however (more likely) the top clamp is one piece with the bottom halves of the bar clamps you will need to either get it machined out? or you coould try fitting one from a 2007 model? Not sure if it will fit mind! Better still you could get a VERY nice VMAR one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barrybaines Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 later will not fit ,the 01-07 have convetional forks Very good point! infact if they are upside down forks I doubt the V-mar ones will be available either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirhc Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 (edited) The V-mar look the bizz, how do you rate them??? I had the V-Mar on my Beta and now on my Montesa, they are awesome but they don't make them for the USD forks Edited May 17, 2007 by sirhc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mad4it Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 I presume that you are refering to the top yokes as apposed to the fat bar adaptors that allow fitment of the larger bars to the standard mounts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikee Posted May 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 What would help me on this one is if any of you who have either the standard fat bars or the renthal fat bars could give a measurement between to center of the holes on the clamps...

v-mar Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 On our V-Mar top clamps, the spacing between the bolt holes on the bar clamp is 40mm (the bolts on either side of the handlebar), and the side to side spacing between the two bar clamps 80mm. The diameter of the standard bar is 7/8" (0.875" or 22.225mm) and the diameter of the fat bar is 1-1/8" (1.125" or 28.575mm) Hope that helps. Vince V-Mar Racing If you need more info I can probably post a dimensioned drawing or photo. Just let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
