Title: Bikemaster Superbike bars
Post by: BoomChuck on April 09, 2009, 08:14:45 PM
I looked on GStwin wiki and the Bikemaster superbike bars were recommended as close to stock.  I purchased them and was sitting on my bike and noticed i could maybe flip them upside down for a more sporty position.  Has anyone tried this?  Does it work well or not at all?

I never tried it, but thought about it. When i had superbike bars I rotated them down to lower them. Worked for me, but the bar ends would make contact with the tank at full lock.

would bar risers help combat tank contact?  OTOH, if you wanted your bars higher, you could just leave em stock...n/m...

while i was digging around in the garage last night i also found the buddha clubman style bars that i got from him years ago.  i never got around to putting them on.  Anybody have any input on these?  I could just put those bars on instead of the superbike upside down.
