I just received a set of Crossroads bars I purchased from E-bay and they seem too narrow for my 98 S1W. They hit the tank way too soon. The number on them is N09701. Are they the wrong ones or did I install them wrong? |

Sounds like the ones for the smaller tank. There are 2 different kinds for the tubers. |

Guell is right. The 95-97 S1 had a much narrower 3 gallon gas tank. |

yes like they said there is a couple tanks out there, the early m2 and s1 tank is narrow the s1w and the late m2 have a manta wide tank, i think that you can just try to find the wider base plate instead of the whole three piece kit. |

That's my kind of luck. The auction I bought them on said they were for a 99 so I thought they would fit. Cyclonemduece I think I will try that first before trying to sell these and buy the right ones. Anyone have the wide base they want to sell or trade for this one. |

...or you could swap to the small tank It's only one bolt, and a fuel hose clamp....lol. |

But I really like the look of the bigger tank. Does American Sport Bike sell just the base plate? I'll call them latter today and ask. I had the LSL bars on it but didn't like the position they put my hands in. |

You can call CrossRoads and ask if they have just the center....(though, IIRC, they dont own the prod line anymore). I DO know, that when they did, they would sell individual parts... after a crash or something like that... Chase |

SKNTPIG I have the LSL superbike bars that are blue. But I have to get the new base for the crossroads before I can get rid of them. If your interested let me know. Paintshaker PM sent. Interested in trading base plates? I'll throw in some cash. This one has been polished. |

Maybe we could all work something out. I don't want the blue LSLs but thanks. I could buy the narrow crossroads and allow you to buy the other ones from Paint instead of trading. Let me know. |

all Crossroads Buell products are now owned by American Sport bike so if you need something call Al at American Sport Bike. |

Skntpig sorry this took so long. I have been out of town all week. But my wife sent them on the 5th. She also sent you a E-mail with the tracking number. Please let me know when you get them. |
