Alan, The top clamp is the what your handle bars are connected to. The front forks slide up through them. Let me know when you get that shop up and running I would like get those collars turned. Thanks.

Im am still not clear! Where do these collars go? :?

hughes:
The collars would need to go between my forks and the top clamp. The inside diameter of the newer clamps is larger than mine. My front forks are about 43 or 46 mm in diameter(where they slide through the clamp). Newer forks like yours are larger in diameter more like 48 or even 50 mm.

BRB I am going to messure my 01!

hughes:
All I need to do is measure my forks diameter and than I need to measure the newer 250's forks and than make a collar that will make up the differance. Then I can order a new top clamp that would let new run different bar heights and positions. :-o
