Default Fasst Flexx Bars

I am planning on buying a set of Flexx bars with damper mount for my 2010 Nambotin Replica. Being new to the GasGas world I am not sure what bend I need. Is anyone else out there running Flexx bars? What bend do you have? What is your height? I am 5'11".

I've been running Flex bars for years. I'm 6' tall but have really long 'ape' arms. I run the 10 degree enduro bend (normal height, not tall) bars and am really happy with them. I would definitely recommend the 10 degree enduro bend as it is really straight and let's you get farther forward. Height is a personal thing, but if you run a SUB mount, then I would be leary about getting the tall bend.

Exactly what Speedy said. Get the 10* low IMO especially if running a sub mount. They are...um...ah...Im sorry to say this here....KTM clone bars.

Does Fasst have SUB mounts for dampers? I thought the damper mounted on top in place of the bar pad...... I'd be very interested in a SUB mount like I have on my XRR

Fasstco doesn't have a SUB mount. They do offer a damper crossbar that's raised in order to use a steering stabilizer mounted on the top bar clamps. For a SUB mount, BRP makes one, Protect Enduro used to make them (anyone know if you can still get them?) or Main Jet Motorcycles makes one (http://www.mainjet.com.au/product_in...oducts_id=158). Or you can always make your own. I made a SUB mount that uses the stock triple clamp, allows use of either bar position and only raises the bars 20mm. I would consider doing a production run if there was enough interest...

My buddy uses the Motosportz sub mount dampner with the Flexx bars on his KTM. Super low profile and with some creative machine work on his bar mounts and even dishing out the steering stem nut it's practically at stock height. I will get some pics if you wish.

Also, the Motosportz underbar dampner fits the GG bikes with the new Clarke 3.2 gallon tank should you decide you need one. A Scotts or other probably wont.
