    Hey all, I recently changed the fork seals in my Viffer. What is the best way to index my handle bars to make sure that they are both in the same position?

    So far I have been eyeballing it. Still feels kinda weird though. Is there a better way to do it?

    Thanks

    I set the bars about where I like it, then turn the bars all the way to one side and measure between the tank and bar. then do the same the other way and compare the two then adjust untill the distance between the bar and the tank is the same when turn left or right. Thats gets me close enough.

    Are the position tabs from the bottom of the clip-ons still there? They should line up with the space where the clamps tighten.
