wouldnt like the look one bit, but winnings winning. all you can do is try them out and if you can ride better then go for it.

I dont like the idea of extra pivot points. People seem to like them and Im not against them. They did start out on sleds in the early 90s, So they have been tried and true. I would honestly try them, Just tighten the bolts accordingly. The concept is great for taller riders or shorter for that matter as you can pull the bar closer or further from you.

Dammit!

I like the idea of those... never seen them before. I've always wanted my bars a little higher but also a little more forward. Hmmm...

I used them on my sleds in the past there strong on a polaris 2001 600x the week point is the polaris parts on the steering tube. I dont see anu issue on a atv other than cable length and if the hight makes a differnce trail riding higher would be better and racing I'd think lower. I like the anti vibe ones

I'm just hopping for more people to keep putting there tecates on ebay and flood the market then I will get on. I gotta sell more model to pulling tractors to fund it.

I always run higher bars and fat bars but I wouldn't want it to turn in the least when jumping.

Maybe I'm missing the concept.......

I don't think it's supposed to move once you lock it down. It just gives you more adjustability. Raises them up and also lets you move them back and forth a bit. Normal risers on a honda push the bars closer to the rider because of the angle of the bar mounts that are built into the triples.

Unless I'M missing something. :lol:

They wont move they have used them in snowcross for along time too. I mite try the 2" or the 2"anti vibe it will help make room for the trail tech vapor I got. I'd like to mount it between the bars and tank so I can see it when riding.

I had a set simular to those on my old cr250. I never could get the bars at the sweet spot I was ;looking for so I put the stock mounts back on. It came with them when I bought it. Might be a good idea for a trike. Now I'm gonna have to go searching through old parts boxes to see if they're still around.
