Default Tusk Chub Bars (Fat Bars)

When I bought my 05 GG I could tell the bars were bent slightly and they were a little short for my liking so I decided it was time for a new set. When I went looking for bars I did a search for different bar bends and came across Tusk Chub bars. These bars are 1/2 the cost of every one else's and are made out of 7075 Aluminum. Being a machinist by trade I know 7075 is the best grade of aluminum money can buy and after reading 20 or so reviews I decided to try a set. I ended up buying two sets just to try different bends. I bought a set of RC High bars and CR High. After a couple laps around my yard I soon realized I like the CR High and the RC highs are to tall for me being 5ft 9". If I was over 6ft the RC highs might work.

I have approx 10-12 hours of riding on these bars as of now and I can say with out a doubt I will be buying another pair when the time comes. I have not crashed on the bars but I have put these bars through all other test and they come out with flying colors. All the control's and hand guards bolted right up with no problem's. These bars do not come with a bar pad but for 1/2 the cost of the others you can buy a bar pad as I did.

I just wanted to give you a update. The bars are still holding up great after several light crash's in the woods. The EE hand guards bolted right up as well. FYI, Its the same bike I just updated the plastic with the Motocrosscenter special mod kit last fall when I was done riding for the year.
