Hi robinc,
that ad ain't to be trusted.
Another offering in it's text is for a pair of 7/8"/22mm handlebar extensions.
As one who helped a fellow rider install a 7/8" diameter generic handlebar
on a BMW I learned the hard way that 7/8" does NOT equal 22mm.
The true conversion is 22.2mm.
That's only 0.008" difference, you say?
There ain't no "only" about it when you have to remove that 0.008" with
emery tape to get the BMW's 22mm levers & twistgrip to fit on a 7/8" handlebar.
Likewise, those 22mm 'bar extension plugs are gonna be real loose inside your
bike's 7/8" bore 'bar clamps no matter how hard you reef on the clamping bolts.
$1,000.00 seems to be the new "norm" for starting prices. This one is very impressive.

Man I'm in the wrong business, although there would be a lot of hours in that.
And the location is "Fairplay"...
