I was in MCA Auburn today and they only had Renthal low bars. I asked if they had other sizes and was told no and was not asked if I wanted to order any. So I did not ask as it seemed to be all too hard to offer customer service.

So where else in Australia can I get these bars?

I've bought a several things from MCAS and have found the service to be good. Any questions answered quickly. Even though it wasn't face to face but from the online store, i can't complain.

As for the bars , i haven't looked for any.

With Australia Post having every second day off between xmas and New Year they have yet to arrive. I hope on Tuesday. I am off Wednesday so hope to have them then to fit them.

The chrome domes I sent you should, I hope, arrive Tuesday or Wednesday.

I have the road ultra lows and they are very close to the stock bars from the K5 1200 just a bit further forward with less back angle from the centre line of the bike

Some bar dimensions in this web page to measure and compare

Hey Ross. when you pull your old bars off, can you lay them next to the new ones and take a photo to post on here. It so we can tell the difference? Please Smile

Is there any difference between 1200 & 1250 Bars?

Had I have had both eyes open when I looked that the photos I would have seen that they are lower than the standard bars....

Did you drill the guide holes, or file down the locating lugs on the switch blocks ? And what is your opinion on the bars Gus ?

I did not drill my bars. I ground down the little knobs with my dremel and a bur. The left side o the bars has a knurled pattern cut into it to hold the grip and the switch block. The right side does not. Yet I have found that the switch block will hold on that side with no tape under it.
