WTB: S-style handlebar
« on: August 26, 2012, 08:49:46 PM »
I have a K75T that could really use an S handlebar. Also, not sure if I absolutely need the s-style dashpad or if the general version will be fine (read, not totally goofy looking). Thanks in advance.

You'll be fine with the square dash and S bars.  That's what I've got on my K75 (for the extra switch slot) and it looks fine IMO.

Thanks Duck, that makes things easier. Any chance you have another set (other than the bar-end weighted ones on your site)? Look at me being picky ....

Sorry but I don't have any at the moment.  Just my .02 but if you like to ride "aggressively" at all then you're much better off with S/RS bars.  I don't get the demand for C bars as the S bars provide much better handling/control IMO.  I'm only 52 though.  Maybe when I'm 80 I'll want some C bars. :laugh

Usually people are referring to the C bars when they use that term.

I have an extra set of "S" bars.  I would be willing to sell them or trade for some "C" bars.  They are in nice condition.

Doctorchad, I'm almost positive I have LT bars as this is a K75T (Duck, can you confirm?), otherwise I would happily trade. If you could, PM me your as shipped price.

If you're still looking, these would be the same as on my '94 K1100RS despite what the auction says:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/K1100-LT-Handlebar-Stock-Low-Black-/330767102984?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4d03417408&vxp=mtr

From what I can read of the part number, it matches mine.* (non-heated grips, closed end threaded for bar ends...yada yada...basic K1100RS bars)


*Parts 'fiche shows this/my part number in the heated grip kit retrofit kit, despite there being no holes for wiring.
