hey i was wondering if anyone has tried the bikemaster european bars. Clubmans seem popular as well as the superbikes but the european seems to be a medium between the two. anyone?

BEND     WIDTH     RISE     PULL  BACK    CENTER

Clubman   28"       -0.8"           6"          4.8"

Superbike    29.2"        3.04"        3"            4"

European    30"           2.4"       4.8"       4.8"

Sorry, I don't have any experience with these bars. Thanks for posting the detailed info!

I just order another pair of superbike bars as i finally decided i need 18 dollar bars more than i need 150 dollar bars, though i did eyeball the european bars for a minute until i noticed the lack of "pullback".

they pull back more then superbikes do.

i might have to buy a set

What are the european bars? Anyone have a link or pick? Where do they come from?

i'm pretty sure I have the european bars (they might be daytonas, which are VERY similar) and I really like the bend on them. It's basically a stock bar though, so if you're looking for a new riding position, look elsewhere. If you bent your stock bars and are looking for a replacement, we have a winnar

daytonas have a 5" rise and would be practically stock, the europeans are lower than the superbikes. i'm just wondering if the "pull back" (in trials they call it sweep) will cause interference with the tank

heres a pic of them mounted to a triumph. after further inspection it looks a bit higher than the superbikes however it does have more sweep. the measurements make it out to be shorter than the superbike.... maybe if you flip them upside down?

i guess the only way to compare is to have both side by side
