They were made by a bloke who used to post on here - I've forgotten his handle now.  Irrelevant though cos he moved to the middle of nowhere...........

They where made by ByzMax at choppit customs

Those weird looking things should be easy to make ? Any decent engineering company could help ?

They may look better, but they won't work as well. I'm not sure if it would be just as easy to make some offset yokes - (+4 inches?). The trike looks good on them though how does it ride?

It handles fine no handle bar shake or tank slap at any speed from pulling away up to 70mph or back down again rides corners well. and in a straight line. you can ride one handed with no force from the bars affecting your control. there fully adjustable for ride height. in my opinion there better then doing offset yokes you go out +4" the trike drops down app 2"
