Top yoke swap

[barney 66]

Morning all
I have recently bought a 1983 31/2 sport because it has electric start, due to a hernia I can’t kick the 76 Strada,but I don’t like the riding position of the sport.
With it came a top yoke that the previous owner said he was going to fit with flatter bars if he didn’t sell ( this was my downfall as I presumed it would fit quick one on top of the other looked fine right up until 2hrs later after making a stainless bracket for the clocks test fit only to ring fork holes in yoke are 38mm instead of 35mm.
So reason for the post is should I look for another yoke or would you knowledgeable folks be happy to sleeve down to 35mm ?
Thoughts please

Thanks for looking

Hi Barney,
I might well have a 35mm Strada handlebar-clamp top yoke, can have a look?

Message me: moriniboy23@yahoo.co.uk as Im not always on here

I think reducing collars will look a bit odd

Id be interested in buying your 38mm one if not, if you do source one elsewhere!
