handguards dont fit my bars

i have "fatbars" on my drz and on the end of the bars where the bolt is supposed to go in it is only 8mm so the retainers dont push into the end of the bars.

Anyway of getting round this ?

Re: handguards dont fit my bars

the inner diameter of the bars is only 8mm not sure on the outer but it will take a fair bit of drilling
