Default Stock Gasser bars????

I have an 07 300 and want to get new bars that are full width. I am used to the stock ones but don't want to pay thru the nose for them. Any place I can get them for a reasonable price?

Thanks

Windham bend bars were pretty close to the hebo bars I broke. They might be slightly flatter.

I have a set of those pro tapers ... they match the tomeselli bars that came off my husky, which are on my 11 250 sd. I did not put them on. The tomeselli have just enough sweep that it bothers me a bit standing. I still have two sets of stock hebo bars from my 06 300. one set has been cut down for very tight trails .. i.e. "jersey enduro bars". the other set is stock but slightly bent so I don't use them. I have been looking or a good replacement but have not found it yet. I used to be able to get hte stock hebo bars from go fasters for $55!! Lewisports out in cali sell trial stuff .. been meaning to call them ....

I have 2 sets of stock bars taking up space on the garage wall. Both are from 450's. I have no idea if they are the same as 300 bars.

I think I need to keep the '07's incase I decide to build a bike around the '07frame and motor I have, but if the '05's will work for you, make me an offer.

Hi!

I went shopping for handlebar last week. In the shop there were Windham and 604 (oem CRF/KXF bend) Renthal fatbars. I decided to get the 604 because it has a bit less sweep and it is a bit taller. I think still it has more sweep than the stock Hebo bar but it still feels very natural on the hands.

I ride standing up almost all the time to avoid back pain. This biases my preference for bars that put me in a standup attack position to get my weight forward over the bars on my arms to lighten the stress on my back.

TrailTech X bars are designed with low sweep for standup trail riding. They have 40 mm sweep and are 1/2 inch lower than stock. I have a set on my '01 300 and they are great.

I have a set of ProTaper Universal low bars on my '06 EC300. They have very little sweep and little rise. They are about 1 inch lower than stock. (This is to compensate for my custom forward bar mounts) They are excellent for standup riding in the attack position.

Yes, i replaced my 2010 300 OEM bars with trail tech tall bars. I like them, very little sweep

Also, did not completely understand the original post-are you looking to buy used OEM bars? If so I still have mine

Happy New Year.
