Changing the bar's
« on: 06 February 2017, 08:01:06 pm »
Hi all.
Well I'm looking at changing the bar's on my fz6 05 plate to a set of ultra low renthal's,  but remember reading somewhere that I would need some slight modifications. Do any fz1 bars fit as they look like they are flat bars?

When I changed the bars on my foxeye to renthals I had to drill small holes in the bars for the switches and levers as they have locating pins on them, I assume that FZ6 is the same , I do know some just file off the pins in the handle bar switches and levers which is a bit irreversible and depending on how the FZ6 bar end weights mount you may need to get renthals ones or find a way to fit the oe ones.
I'm not sure about the fz1 bars as again the locating pins might be in a different position and you're back to the drill holes or file pins conundrum.

Cheers Graham53, what renthals did you go for?  I was looking at ultra lows unless their is a set which are even flatter
