measure the diameter of the inside where the bars would go. if its 1 1/4" it should work with normal 1 peice bars

well if the inside is like 1 3/8 like oversized bars, then i guess you could stick a double-clamp shim inside the stem. or just get oversized main bar

dont bother, too much effort to keep it good, i rode it for 2 months and i had to fix it all the time because nothing was the right size and even then the bolts stripped a few times so save yourself the time.

thanks for the replies guys

the reason im doing this is so it will give my bars more rise and i can have bars with up-sweep as-well because i suffer from a bad back from my little ass bars but cant afford new ones

would it be worthwile if i did it like this ?

nothing makes it solid and if it does only for 20 mins of hard riding and 10 mins on street

did you drill through it and put bolts in like the ones in buffs ?
cos if you did not i can imagine it being shit and coming loose if not sliding strait of
