Check out my razor e300 ultra thread in there I show SCS bars and clamp that's what all the stunt scooter riders prefer to abuse with backflips, the handle bars I got where chromo 4130 there's lots of titanuim oversized bars around that is an easy fit for a 1 1/8th steerer tube, they use SCS bars and clamp because there's no slit at the bottom of the bars for a crack to break out of.
The threadless headsets take seconds to swap out bearings plus come with cartridge bearings for extremely cheap follow the modern mountain bike that's what the scooter industry does pinch parts so they cheap.
My ultimate set up would be like i mentioned, a tapered titanuim head tube with internal integrated bearing cup link below, with a 1 1/8th bearing on top and a 1 1/4th bottom bearing and a fork with matching steerer tube, that way I can still use the stunt scooter selection of bars with an SCS clamp and a real rigid fork assembly that allows the fork to hug the frame.
