Thanks lads.

I also saw some MCS Ron C Bars that look similar.
Will take the bars off this wkend to get some better pictures.

Don't look like Ron C's, they have a hollow lower piece where the stem clamps and they look like they're capped.

Thanks pickle  :)
The bottom piece is hollow and slightly sealed leaving a small hole. :)
The ends of the bottom tube are cut at an angle.
Will try to get better pictures up at the weekend.

I'd go with Sun bars but i'm no expert  :daumenhoch:

DK bars were capped like yours with a hole but they were straight cut on the end rather than angled like yours.

These are my old Ron C's to show the hollow bottoms

Lets have a look at the welds and the clamp area?

If they are Scuds then I'm interested.
