Title: After market bars
Post by: Ballpien on 02 June 2015, 12:25:22 am: Any Gen2 owners out there got Pro Taper bars on their bike?

They look more suited to a SM bike but I like the look

I have Renthal bars and lower risers atm but just wanted a first hand opinion if there's any about

Sorry havent heard of those bars before but i cant see why they wouldnt be suitable.......it's more reach with cables & brake lines that's the issue with bars.

I fitted Renthal High to my gen 2 & ok they look a tad out of place but are great at normal riding.....front gets twitchy under full throttle but dropping the yokes has helped that.

I had braided lines with extra length which gave me just enough.....i also sliced off the left side cable tidy cage.

Oh.......get some pics up of the bike....sounds like you're doing a bit of work. 8)

I was only asking as I had the chance to buy some (Pro Taper Contour) and Rizoma risers. I left the bars and got the risers
