Title: Renthal 758
Post by: woodwizzard on 06 August 2014, 06:53:30 pm

Have 758 bars fitted to my bike, does anyone know how the profile of these differs to original bars please.

Yep, it's miles better! Less sweep, slightly wider, and about the same height.
Fitted them to 2 out of 3 of my boxeyes, first mod I do to make the bike comfy.

Renthal advised me to fit 7541 bars but my mechanic suggested fatbar , I am after a raised handlebar position instead of flat. are your bars higher and do you have any photo's of the Renthal bars please.

Sounds like I should leave them on then :)


Will take some pics later Red, unless someone beats me to it.

The 758s suit the Gen1 well and seem to be the replacement bars of choice. I had to replace my bars after I bent the OEM ones and definitely prefer the 758s especially after having them tapped out to take the OEM bar ends.
