I really wanted these bars for my Evo, they are a good medium bw clip ons and bars.
So i spoke to the folks at SM and they are no longer producing the M4 bars for the monster 1100.  I'm wondering if there's a shop that can em off the dimensions he posted on his site

You should not have a problem getting those built.  Were I you I would look for 4x4 fabricators as they will have the ability to make the proper cuts.

Oh and get out your wallet.   ;)
Two things I don't do.  Keyboard bullies and hypocrites.
Feel free to PM me if needed, otherwise you will find me elsewhere.

If you made a jig to locate/hold the pieces in place for tacking, it would not be very expensive. Otherwise, the manhours for the fabricator to do it himself would probably end up costing more than a new bar price.

Another consideration for a fabricator would be a boat tower builder. They do beautiful work. Of course you would need to be near a deep water fishing area. Third suggestion for a fabricator would be a certified welder at a small airport. In any case, the key would be for you to provide the jig/fixture.

 Have you considered riser clipons?

I had those on my SV.  Personally, I'd stick with the stock bars.  Made the bike a bit harder to turn and less comfortable... but it looked pregnant dogin!

Take a look at the Speedy Moto bars, they aren't like normal clip ons. The bar ends up concentric with the fork tubes with adjustable angles and hight.

Spike you're referring to the tall boys?

SpikeC

 Yup. I tryed to use them on my Bimota butt the cables from the controls would have run straight into the fork tubes. They are designed for the Monster.'
