82 HONDA CB750C HANDLE BARS

I'M JUST WONDERING WHERE IS THE BEST PLACE TO GET SOME CAFE RACER HANDLE BARS FOR MY 82 CB750C AND ONE MORE QUESTION:

DO I HAVE TO SWITCH ANY CABLES OR PARTS IN ORDER TO SWITCH TO A FLAT HANDLE BAR?

THANK YOU!

Nice looking bike. I do see that you need new fork seals though. As for handle bars, most every bike shop will have an assortment of new bars on display. The cables might be delt with by careful re-routing.

Wow yeah you're right! They've been leaking for a few days. So replacing the seals should stop the leaking? I might just replace them for new ones. My cousin said I have to get shorter cables if I want to get flat handle bars is that true?

Maybe. Like I said "the cables might be delt with by careful rerouting" this means that you might be able to re-rout them to deal with the extra slack, and it will not be a problem. I would be more concerned with the handle bars/controls hitting the tank.
