I bought an aftermarket set of clamps for my '83 YZ250.  If anyone knows this bike, it needs at least an inch of height in that area.  The bar clamps are too low.   know who makes something at least an inch higher?  I did buy some Pro Taper but the bolt pattern didn't fit and they weren't tall enough anyway.

I thought about a longer bolt and making a spacer, but that bolt head is pretty hard to duplicate.

Get FMX bars or vintage bend bars.  They have a much taller rise than current bends.  ProTaper has a chart.
