Hi,

thanks

Alota guys run 400ex bend bars, I personally use CR mid ones on my Z, but soon switching to 400ex ones.

Nothing better than the 400ex bend renthals in my book. I run them on everything I ride regularly.

All works, the Cr mid ones are a tad tight to fit everything on, about a few mm of clearence between the brake and handlebar pad cover mounting thing. But all works good, if you go atv bend your all set!

I have tags on mine...same type of bar as the pro taper. I have found that the adaptors set them to far back for my riding style. I like to stand ride MX tracks. Still have them on as they look sweet.

I like those levers, what make are they?

If I get the pro tapers to suit atv, what is closest to stock, the low, mid or high? or the raptor?

thanks for your help

You will need a 1 1/8 fat bar adapter from Moose Racing if you want to run fat bars but its only like 50 bux extra. (CDN)

Moose makes a great aluminum fat bar, Flex Series I think they are called. I'll be getting some very soon.

Does anyone have the adapters to allow adjustment forward or backward as well as tilt for your handelbars?
They raise them too.

Levers are ASV

Levers are ASV


they certainly look the part, are they for a Honda ATV? or are they a multi fit unit?
I might be adding these to my wish list.

If I remember correctly they were for the TRX 250R. I did have to grind down some of the aluminum on the brake lever around where the piston is on the master cylinder to make it fit.
The clutch lever comes with the whole perch.
I replaced the front brake master cyl with the one from my 02 CR 250. Better looking unit so now I need to get a new lever.
