Hard to tell so far. Last time I rode the same track it was dry so my speed and confidence was a bit higher. That time I got beat up by all the smaller steps, roots etc. Not so much this time, but as the speed was lower its hard to compare. But I'm quite convinced they work as expected. I agree they are expensive for a set of bars. I also bought their handguards. I didn't exactly make the purchase less expensive...

I see. Well, be sure to let us know how they work out for you in the long term. Ive been fairly enamored with them since they came out.

I noticed with the Flexx bars my hands don't go numb anymore so that's something. But like you, I haven't really had a chance to get a good comparable ride on them.

On saturday I rode a 2 hour race. I think the bars work well. I am a slow "racer" and usually end up close to the bottom of the rankings. I did so this time as well, but I was closer to the midrange riders than usual, so I think the bars helped me keep my speed up for a longer period.

I did a yellow lamin-x film on my headlight. Purely for function. That function being that it looks cool. Other than that I've just been riding it.

Default Unbelievable cleaning product!!!

Tried a new bike cleaner today. My 2010 EC300 needed a really good wash & polish. You won't believe the results!

My 250F got itself a Rekluse EXP 3.0. Only did the run-in procedure on my back yard. Weird sensation really. Now lets get rid of those driver error stalls.
