If all you want is to move the bars above the triple tree loosen the bar clamp screw & remove the one under the mount. Then loosen the top triple clamp bolt. At this point remove the wire clip at the top of the tube & you can slide the tube down to remove the bar mount then push the tube back up through the triple clamp high enough to mount the bar on top. Reinstall the wire clip & pull down enough to touch the bar mount then tighten the triple clamp bolt, align the bars where you want & tighten. Note, only do one side at a time as the front wheel will turn when you pull the tube out of the triple tree & you'll have to force it back into position to push back into the triple tree. Danger, if you loosen both sides the front will fall. The wires & brake lines on my '99 are long enough to reach without replacing anything. Precision Machine used to make a clamp that attached the underside screw to them & and the triple clamp but it isn't necessary if you tighten everything down good. I just moved mine above as I damaged my shoulder & decided to raise them again.
