Handle Bars
« on: June 19, 2012, 12:24:55 am »
So I managed to get a start dismantling the spare TM I have and was checking out the bars that came with the bike.  I like them ... I think I might get them rechromed and run them on the bike.  What do you guys think?

They look like a flat track bend, lots of rise and pull back. I like em!

If you use em make sure you put on some highway pegs and foot mounted controls ;)

Yeah, they look like flat track bars to me....or refugees from someones old Beeza rocker bike from the 60's.
If you're brave enough to use 'em Simo don't forget to plug them ::)

LOL .. and higher Curly  :)

I like Paul's idea of highway pegs .... I suppose they will have to be spring loaded too?

Thanks Freaky but I was only kidding around ... I won't be running these bars .. although the idea of the highway pegs was interesting   ;D
