Hi from Sweden...
Hi,

So a little intro...

I bought a 96 M900 as a winter project. It is in pretty decent shape but needs some attention to bring it back to pristine. I hope to learn and share as much of the experience on the forum.

Thanks,
Leon.I

Clip ons I expect. It's a fairly popular mod. I actually prefer mine to the standard bars.

Above the yoke or below? Did you do a riser-delete too?

Below the yoke but with 1.5 to 2 inch rise. Woodcraft ones. I didn't need to do the riser delete because the S4 is weird, the 2 piece bars are bolted to the yoke like on the ST series bikes.

Back in the day when I built a Triton I put the clipons almost on the bottom yoke ,, it was common and painful position ha ha
