Bars look like raised clip-ons attached above the triple as opposed to a plain handlebar. So finding clip-ons that will work should be a snap... plain ones attached above or risers attached below. Looks like there's plenty of body clearance, too.

WTF... I can't see anywhere on the swing arm to attach spools. how the heck are we supposed to lift the bike for servicing?
the cbr 250s dnt have anywhere for rear swingarm spools either, they make rear stands that just lift the actual swingarm
