    Emgo Daytona Touring handlebars

    Was looking into picking up a set of them but just now noticed that they have no knurling at the triple tree clamps. Anyone have any issues with them moving once clamped down?

    Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.;)

    I've used those before and had no issue's once everything was clamped down.

      Yep, no knurling needed.

      I will say that it will likely be worth your while to read the bit in the manual about the correct tightening sequence and torque.

        No idea what the bars are that I currently have installed on my 850, but they moved some after I had them properly clamped down. Ended up using shims made from a pop can (RC Cola, I believe) and they haven't budged since.
