Looking to replace my bars but can't decide which ones to choose - low road sports, superbike low or one of any others. can anyone recomend a good choice. Just need a bit more room as my clutch has to be moved to right hand side.

thanks folks

Far as i can tell, the 758's have been highly commended by the 600 & Thou riders alike for a long time now, they're also called ultra lows.i got a set & i didnt cut them down or anything & ive only done 10 miles on them but they're bloody nice.

You wont be able to fit standard bar end weights in them because the inner diameter is smaller but i fitted renthal plugs & i cant feel any buzzing through the bars.

I need a longer run to test them out in anger but im waiting on my bikes return from the garage.
So far so supreme

cheers guys, i'm in Lanarkshire, bit far, but thanks for offer.

What type of ultra low bars did you get? I've seen suberbike.road bike and sports bike.

Ultra low appeal as might have more room.

thanks

Mine were ultra low road sports from m&p.

Demon tweaks ultra low bars are 840mm wide and are around £19.00
Rental 758s are close to stock bars but slightly straighter and approx 40mm wider than stock.

758s are fairly close to original bars, but do not listen to those who say they need cutting down! Try them at full width first, I wish I had!
Then again, if you need more room on the right for the clutch, you'll want the extra width.

Left my 758's standard width, and they're great being a little wider. A very worthwhile mod!

Wondering why you need the clutch on the right?

Wow, good for you

Whats the full setup you have then, if the clutch is where the front brake should be where is that now?

bluefaze · « **Reply #16 on:** 24 September 2013, 05:46:28 pm »

hi locksmith, brake sits above clutch, can use one finger, behave please, to operate. so got brake, clutch and throttle all on one side, works for me

locksmith · « **Reply #17 on:** 24 September 2013, 06:15:37 pm »

Neat, god knows how you hang on!!

Remember watching a guy with one arm racing at brands a few years ago, whilst he wasn't at the front he wasn't foccin hanging about.
