Polish Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 (edited) I have tried a lot of bends.........ATV high, medium........raptor...ect ect! I have personally found that the Honda CR High (MX Bars)......seem to fit my style, there the pro taper Fat Bar........there a little wider and taller. I chose taller because I mostly ride on top of my Bars.........The RM Carmichael has a good bend also! I know you are looking to spend only $40.00............but here is a picture of my CR bend Edited September 1, 2006 by Polish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThE_BaNsHeE_mAn88 Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 i have a set of trail tech fat bars and there atv low. i have low because i do more jumping and mx. i think it would be worth the extr money to get trail tech fat bars because i flip mine 3 times once on the road and they havent bent yet. my frame bent befor they did here they are. i got the bars for 62 and i got the clamp off some guy on yfz central new for 35. so look around and you can find some good ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gregbowler Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 I run the renthal honda 400EX bend bars on mine. They're a little less pull back and a little taller than stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okbeast Posted September 2, 2006 Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 I like my bars on the 400ex. If I ever need new bars for the shee, i'll probably get this bend just cuz I'm used to it and like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lonestar Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 (edited) I like V bars. Had them on 3 wheeler also very comfortable for me, & cheap price wise. Almost like semi drag bars Edited September 3, 2006 by lonestar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put a CR kill switch on.........and the lights stay on perminatly...........real easy setup...........I think the switch was $9 - $11 bucks..................I elimated mostly all of my electrical crap..........and ran it nice and clean next to the frame..........here is pics I used a free flow vent tube to keep it away from the fram and pipe..........my camera sux so it might be a little hard to see..............I got the idea of the vent tube from Hot Rod Mag..........It looks like in the picture that it is touching the pipe, but its actuall 2" away Edited September 3, 2006 by Polish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee364 Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 I put a CR kill switch on.........and the lights stay on perminatly I put a YZ kill switch on mine and wired a toggle switch for the lights on bright. Mounted it behind the radiator. I have Pro Taper SE bars in the Carmichael Bend (MX). I have always had motorcycles, so I am used to the lower bends. This is a very low bend, medium pull back and pretty wide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Washburn Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 I am thinking about buying the FLY bars 35 bucks. Or just putting my old LT250R bars on. I want a higher bar than stock 1/12 would be perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
