    i think make a copy or get a machinist to make a new triple tree top but it probably should have no problem as long as u use stuff like washers and its not a critical structural area

    (drill through the thin areas that not ribbed i guess)
    either way lets see pics

    I would be careful mounting risers to the top clamp. It is probably not designed to withstand the leverage you will apply with handlebars mounted directly.
