My new bars look great and feel good.

Renthal Road Bars, Ultra lows.

Told ya you would like em Reardo. They are so comfortable. Have to be close to the best mod. Do you want a couple of the dyna clamps I got to remount your bar-ends ?

What are they Hammy? I've never heard of them.

Which ones did you get again?

Renthal Ultra lows.

How is the pressure on your wrists? How are your shoulders with them as well?

They are Dyna bolt Loxin anchors. 35mm long 12mm wide. Have a 6mm nut which is the mechanism to expand the loxin and anchor it, as well it takes the original 6mm bar-end bolt. The steel loxin grips onto the softer aluminium and will not budge. Very simple to do. All I did was shorten the metal sleeve that goes over the bolt by 12mm. Discard the rubber bungs. Wrap insulation tape around one end of the metal sleeve till it slips in nicely into the bar. The taped end goes to the barend end. A 12mm washer then the loxin. Start to wind it until it just starts to touch the inside of the bars. Push it all in and tighten up. Presto.

So it's one of these ?

Thats it. The 12mm ones fit inside the Renthals perfect.

Thanks mate, But I already made my own out of rubber hose. just made smaller rubbers for the standard barends.

Haven't been for long ride yet.
But not a lot of difference. May go for risers just to see what the difference is in feel.

So, I liked the look and feel of the new bars, but my hands and back ached after 20minutes. Not bad, just enough to irritated me.

Enter the 30mm risers from ebay.

Standard



Before the raisers with Renthal.



Raised and rolled the bars forward a bit.







It feels good, like a Dirt bike feel. Need to ride her to know for sure. But that isn't going to happen for 3more days, Bloody rain.

I'm not a fan of the look, but ya can't win them all.

They are the "cleanest" looking risers that I have seen. Smart.

Good work @Reardo.

I put Rox risers on my DRZ http://www.roxspeedfx.com/ they allow a little more adjustment



BTW do a GUS and paint the risers all black

Raisers with ulta-low bars ?? Isnt that a contradiction Lift it up ,drop it back down again ?

Yes mate. I thought you would pick me up on that one.
I have always hated the look of the standard bars, not the feel. I love the look and feel of the ulta-low(with out riser), But after 20minutes it's just not right for me.

Haven't rode it, But I think feels the best it has yet.

I don't know what the rise of the standard bar was, But ulta-low Renthals with 30mm risers feel higher than the originals.

So I've a NEW set of raisers yeah yeah I know. Just can't make my mind up
7/8" bar style 1"-up & 1 3/8" back
GenMar
Part# S121a (anodized silver) = $109.95 + shipping

Gus, are there pictures of your bar clamps in black? I'd like to have a look before I do mine.
