I think you would be making a BIG mistake trying to make everything fit on 1" bars......unless you are going to do a full-on custom job.....and even then, you probably could get something close to what you want in a 7/8 bar anyway. Keep looking; trying to "adapt" 7/8 controls to a 1" bar would be a ROYAL PITA.......as would getting bars that are much wider 'cause, as someone else said, there ain't much slack.

A 7/8 set that is narrower or farther forward shouldn't be a problem.
