I've been riding my steel bikes more often lately, including my 750. I put the butterfly handlebar back on it and I'm friction shifting with Microshift thumb shifters. I have one layer of inner tube wrap on the bar, plus a layer of Serfas cork handlebar tape. The diameter is healthy (about 40mm) and it's very comfortable. With that rear roller clutch, there's no freehub clicking when you coast, and the ride is nearly completely silent...it's a very peaceful ride.
