    The "uh-oh / oops bar"

    I'm getting tired of looking at the stock grab bar on my S, does anybody know of a fairly cheap one thats still a quality item, that will mount up too an 85 200s?

    I want something phat, that I can fit both feet into
    If you can't fix it with a , its an electrical problem.

    85 ATC 200s--Ratted out and not running at the moment

    86 ATC 200x--All stock other than the handle bars

    85 ATC 250es Big Red -- Just got new rubbers and she wants to ride!!

    04 Suzuki LTZ250 quadsport - It was a decent price and I'm a raging idiot.

    yeah you're right, cheap and strong, that would only cost about 10 bucks and few drops of elbow grease

    I"m actually planning on doing just that.

    My neighbor is pretty good with a welder.. and metal pipe and flat bar is easy enough to score.

    I want one that goes low to help pull it up off the ground . my current one is way to high.

    I was thinking of that, it wouldn't be hard too go crazy and make it too heavy by accident and turn it into a perm. wheelie machine.

    Maybe, weld on a frame, and have differant weight, bolt on tubes so you can change the weight of your rear at your own will?

    that would be pretty cool for 3 wheelers that arent hard tails, that would cause steering loss for riding with the weights on, on a hard tail
