Title: handle bar info
Post by bess227 on 06/10/12 at 19:54:54

i am thinking my stock drag bars are a large contibutor to my "lack of complete comfort" on my 07 S40

for those of you that have switched out bars. got any tips on some to look at? some to stay away from?

trying to find some that won't require a re-cabling job.

thanks up front.

safe ridin.

handlebars are as personal as anything else.

and may take some minor tweaking to get perfect.

sit on the bike and level it up.
close your eyes and reach out to where you think the bars should be
have a friend measure the difference.

next go to a shop and try out some bars.

to me, the drag bars are comfortable, but too narrow and a little too much pull back. The answer was simple... a pair of z bars.

once you got your bars then worry about the cables.
