Anyone have any idea where I can buy some 1 1/8" bar clamps in N. Dallas area?
I've tried:
Maxim
Al Lamb's
Honda/Suzuki North
Bates II
Moto Liberty
Dallas Harley in Allen *ack, pffff*
I can find them all day long on eBay but I want to install my new highway bars this weekend.
Thanks!

What about T-Roy in Greenville...he has a lot of Valk type stuff....
If nothing else, I have a set you can use until you find what you are looking for.
Are you going to be at the wrench party this weekend?

Too funny, unless you are you trying to find some clamps. Might also try Allen HD. They'll fall out if they ask what kind of bike  |

I had ordered mine from J&P Cycles Metric Catalogue ... they have different diameters to chose from .... bar clamp seem to be a speciality part . I one on my handle bar for a universal cig. lighter and works like a champ ...

Might also try Allen HD. Dallas Harley in Allen *ack, pffff* I tried them already Gary. Crazy thing about that stop was they said they don't carry that size but almost every catalog I've looked at says 1 1/8" is a Harley clamp. Go figure! I had ordered mine from J&P Cycles Metric CCatalogue ... I'm attempting to buy local... |

I went through the same thing about a month ago for P clamps. Called every major dealer and a few of the bike shops, and no one carrys them. Had to special order them through the dealer to get my discount.

Two Wheel World in Garland stocks them, but do not usually have them out for viewing. You got to ask for them. ~Jeff

I plan on being there, I need to bleed my brakes. Happiness is a nice, firm, pair of brakes.  I have a set you can use until you find what you are looking for. I'll take the three piece set of clamps Jim; thanks! I'll bring the Kury's and some cash to the ride next weekend. |
