Most 1 1/4 bar they sell in the market has reduced in size to 1" at the riser clamp and the grip ends to accept stock controls, other than that will not fit for sure. Do a search online, tons of them are built that way.

Just my opinion, but a Sporty looks odd with fat bars. The bike is light andnimble-looking as built. The fat bars draw attention to themselves and unbalance the look.

Just my opinion.
