yeah, figure out for the rest of us which will fit...  :-)  thanks
for the pointer.

they make a bunch of different styles for different bikes.  the setup
for the ST (and, i presume, the RS) is pictured at:
	http://www.helibars.com/triumph.html  (click for larger image),
and i _think_ it's similar to the setup for the kawasaki concours, which
has a better picture:

from the picture, i think there's some amount of vertical adjustment
because the vertical part clears the edge of the triple clamp, and
therefore the lower end can drop below it.  i'll be calling them on
monday to ask for sure about how they'd work on the RS.
