20100011904 | Motorcycle handlebar riser extensions - Motorcycles are a one-size-fits-all device from the factory. Shorter people, people with shorter arms or operators who changes the grips from the longer factory grips to what is called ISO grips, which are shorter, find the length and position of the handlebars uncomfortable. The operator has to lean forward each time a turn is encountered, to turn the handlebars as far as required to maneuver the motorcycle. This invention, riser extensions, raises the handlebars up and repositions them rearward, allowing the operator more bend in the elbow and the ability to operate the motorcycle in a more upright position. The operator can safely turn the handlebars as far as required, comfortably making the operator safer. The riser extensions are fastened under the original factory risers and the original bolts and nuts are replaced with longer bolts and locknuts and are tightened to the original factory torque specifications of the originals. | 01-21-2010 |

20100186542 | HANDLEBARS AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING SAME - A handlebar formed from a metal hollow pipe and having a generally uniform peripheral wall thickness along its entire length, including a longitudinal center portion, first and second end portions having a smaller outer diameter than that of the longitudinal center portion, and first and second, tapered intermediate portions connecting the center portion to the first and second end portions, respectively. The first and second, tapered intermediate portions and/or the first and second end portions are bent symmetrically with respect to the longitudinal center portion. The handlebar is produced by bending a hollow straight metal pipe, placing the resulting bent pipe between molds and feeding a pressurized liquid into the bent pipe while axially compressing the bent pipe to cause the peripheral wall of the bent pipe to plastically expand into conformity with a mold cavity defined by the molds. | 07-29-2010 |

20110120257 | FASTENING DEVICE - A structure for sufficiently spacing a steering handle from a top bridge, thereby greatly improving design flexibility. A relief portion for allowing the deformation of a washer is formed to overlap a second contact surface and adjacent to a first contact surface as viewed in the axial direction of each bolt member. The first contact surface is located so as not to overlap the second contact surface as viewed in the axial direction of each bolt member. Therefore, a bending force acts on the washer to allow the deformation of the washer. That is, the washer can exhibit a spring function to relax the effect of the bending force. As a result, the steering handle can be sufficiently spaced from the top bridge to thereby greatly improve design flexibility. | 05-26-2011 |
20110154942 | SAFETY DEVICE ON STEERING HANDLE - Disclosed is a safety device on a steering handle, capable of controlling a direction-control wheel of a wheeled vehicle. The handlebar is engaged with the head part by its mortise with a tenon of the head part. When an outer bar end of the handlebar is hit, an inner tube of the handlebar will be pushed to disengage the mortise and the tenon to rotate the handlebar along. Alternatively, paired washers with wedge-shaped teeth can be utilized to engage the handlebar with the head part. When the outer bar end is hit, the washers are disengaged to allow the handlebar to rotate. Moreover, a hydraulic system or an inserting rod with a chassis groove system can be employed to maintain the original direction of the direction-control wheel when the handlebar is hit. Therefore, a sudden turn of the direction-control wheel and an fall-over of the rider and the vehicle can be prevented. | 06-30-2011 |
