    Hi All,

    Has anyone turned the standard bars around on 2014 Thruxton? And if so have you any photos.

    I’m basically looking for a slightly higher riding position without swapping bars and cables etc.

    Cheers

    Yup, when I bought mine the bars had been turned, I did do it another time as I had an ironing board seat but then realised if I did this there would be no excuse for leaving the wife at home., no photos I'm afraid, But it seemed alright to me.
    What you have to do is flip them 180 degrees horizontally and vertically if that makes sense.
    any way heres some pics i found
