Seems the old 4L0 part is pretty much gone now and supersedes to 55K, anyone know what the differences are?

I think the superseded part is narrower.
I am sure Norbo sells replicas of the original ones.

Seems the old 4L0 part is pretty much gone now and supersedes to 55K, anyone know what the differences are? 4L0 top, 55K bottom.    4L0 bars are 10-15mm wider. 4L0 bars have hollow ends, 55K solid. Slight difference in bend angles. 4L0 bars weigh 750grms, 55K = 1.25kg Bar clamp marks are narrower on 55K HTH OEB |

I have a new supplier who could replica handlebars in stainless.... Is stainless a good material for bars I wonder, bit brittle perhaps? I had a pair of Norbo replicas on my lc2 they didn’t fit ! The clutch and brake perches were right on the bend so I had to buy genuine ,I can’t say about the 4lo as o fitted renthal ultra low I have a set of Norbs on my 4L1 just the same as OEM ones satin and look the part I read a report of some guy having issues with aftermakets as the paint/powder was too fat. Not saying Norbos are bad, just was wary of the bars, plus this is a resto of course so wanted as many OEM parts as possible. |

When I went looking for Handle bars the Old guy at the shop (He had Dozens ! of bars on hand )
When I told I was after the "exactly correct" bars..
He just laughed and said I didn't look like I was 12 yrs old.
Beyond Anorak (ebay?? ) purposes.... the slight differences will become Normal after 10 mins of use.

Interesting thing, all the steel aftermarket LC bars Ive seen/had have been quite light. The 55K bars landed this week and they've weights welded inside the ends, this makes them heavy but also should take out vibes I guess.
