    *Ok, Let's see those grab bar's!!!*

    Hey everyone!

    I am deciding whether I want to keep my grab bar or move on to a new one!


    I like how my grab bar is raised so it sits flush with the plastics.

    I think I want to stay with the 6-pack so I can put my drinks in there, but who knows id I can find a kick butt non-6 pack rack bar maybe I will go with it.



    Enough said!!!



    Post those pics of grab bars!!!


    heres mine:











    Main reason for wanting to replace: Mine has a broken arm. I want everything to be perfect if I can.

    Saleen, that first one is DANGEROUS. The part that stick up can go right through your spine.

    Itll keep breaking too, poor design. Yes it looks very good, but the arms are too long. Could try having it welded, but the welds will probably break.

    Yeah, what is that thing sticking up in the air on the '86? I never saw anything like that on a stock PRM? is it a flag mount? Looks like it could do some damage to your backside during a wheelie-over or other type mis-hap.....

    It's a flag mount. And I'll have 5' of flag up my ar'se before that thing jabs my back. I generally don't wheelie it anyhow......



    If you come off it during a wheelie, as you can see from this pic, the separation angle that you'll naturally come off the bike will be greater than the intersection point of the flag mount.

    After typing that, JEEZUS does that sound like engineering garble, glad I am one!

    DC had it right rockgirl....... PRM is the way to go. I have the baja bar on my 86 and as soon as I scrape up enough cash there will be one on our SX. You might dig their 6 pack rack too -------------> http://prm-atv.com/MN.asp?pg=products&grp=40&mfr=2

    I am happy with the PRM, I'll be swapping one onto the 85 AFTER I swap out some rear hubs to fatten the ole track width up.
