Title: Buckhorn Type Bars Post by Ebikerman on 03/09/10 at 15:18:43 I see from searching that the LS650 buckhorn bars will fit a newer '(06) S40 without adding parts or lengthening cables and wires. My question is... will the buck horns move the grips closer to the rider? That is, if I take the tall risers and remove the inner bent section to make them much lower. Thanks, ebikerman |

Title: Re: Buckhorn Type Bars Post by Ebikerman on 03/09/10 at 18:55:31 Looks from the photo that buckhorns will be just fine. I am 2 inches taller than Paladin with about the same inseam, maybe a little longer. Everybody's input is greatly appreciated and helpful. Just what I needed to make the decision. The photo was extremely helpful. By the way, I already have the buckhorns. I bought them new several months ago on ebay, but thanks for the offer....Dan |

After a few different rides, I would adjust the angle until they were just right. Don't have that option with the drag bars. |
Title: Re: Buckhorn Type Bars Post by Rock_Steady on 03/10/10 at 06:55:38 I have a set for the same price listed above - shipping might be a bit better, I'm in WV. PM if you want them. |
