hey troney, i have a parts 82 virago 920 that has those adjustable bars that i have already taken off. I think they are the same as yours. Did you figure out what was wrong with yours and if you need a set? If you need a set, pm me, you may want to make sure they are the same as the virago 920 though.Jeff

Real Handle bars on a XJ
I have a XJ and put "regular" bars on. I used clamps from a donor bike and made spacers (risers) from some octagon bar stock. had to enlarge mounting holes slightly. Had to make a mirror arm as the original mounts for the mirrors now were at a strange angle. I broke my wrist years ago and needed to keep my wrist straight which I could not do with the stock adjustable bars. I had to do some other mods to make everything work. Check out my pics and contact me if you want any more info or more details.Just ME and my 82 XJ 1100. Mac 4>1-2 1/2" open baffle shotgun, no octy, K&N pod filters, LED tail/brake light & directionals, 750 FD mod, Ear Cannon air horn, modified bars and dash.
