Trail Tech X bars
Thinking of replacing the stock bars on my 03 DE200. I was looking at these bars from trail tech
http://trailtech.net/motorcycle_x-bars.html Does anyone have them? Opinions? Also I couldn't find it on that page...but I don't think they are fat bars so they should just bolt right into the stock hardware correct? Thanks, Sam |
i have been running the mt-m hp7 for about a year. they are very very strong, and do not bend in wrecks :) i regularly bent the renthal fatbars.. and they do not make cockpit feel cramped...i am a stand up rider.. i can't compare them to anything else, as i've forgotten what other bars feel like at this point... i know that i'd definitely buy them again - as i said, they are very tough.
they are oversized. - 28mm - 1 1/8" at clamp. if you like the bars to be in your lap, and are a sit down rider, these will not work for that.. they have almost no sweep, and are very straight at the ends - very trials like. but much stronger.. |
thanks for the reply....they sound perfect for me, as I am also a stand up rider and find I am to hunched over with the stock bars. What additional mounts do I need to switch over from stock?
Thanks, Sam |
I use the Trail Tech X bars in the low woods bend. I really like these bars although I don't think thay are crazy strong like say a Renthal Twin Wall bar. They have a nice low sweep (40mm) which I like and a narrow center section with lots of bar space even cut at 30". I could drop to 29" and still have plenty of space for levers, bark busters etc. (although I use Bonz hand guard mounts). It's a 1 1/8" fat bar BTW. Not a bad bar for $50.

I was looking to go to the X-Bar Woods Low too. I'm running 7/8's now and it will cost me extra to go to 1-1/8's.
The problem with the 7/8 bars is that I have run out of room for equipment, primarily my BRZ route sheet holder and I'd like to mount my Vector on top of the bar clamp. |
Ok total nube question. If I buy these bars I need new clamps an hardware to mount the brake and clutch res. as stock bars are 7/8ths correct? Do I need an specifc brand to fit? Or are those universal?
Thanks sam |

Thanks, sam |
