bars opinions?! 4 Years, 2 Months ago  
O.K. guys, the wrists have had enough and it's time for some new bars. I think I need more of a drag style bar to get my wrists straighter, but am open to any and all suggestions. Being a large guy, I'm wide enough that stock bars keep wrists bound up. Any suggestions on good bars?????

You might want to PM Big Bear. He's a pretty big guy and I think he is running drag bars.

i know what you mean, i use the rubber throttle bosses on both ends, it will make a difference and save money, i have had surgery on both wrist, they will let your wrist relax without having to change handbars,, hope this helps

Love mine! Better control of the bike in hard corners, look awesome, and best of all, no mods needed to the bike. Any questions? BB

Just one question bb. What kind are they? They look great and I'm ready for some relief. My baby won't know what to think as I think I'll do the k&n filter and the fat tire fender mod all at the same time.

Well my favorite bar is the Murphys Hotel up in the Mother Lode. Oh, you mean the other kind?

Barons Star Bar, just enough difference every direction to make it comfortable...I'm 6'2 and 235.
