Handle bar question

[HajiWasAPunk]

I bent my stock handle bars yesterday after high-siding a jump. I was thinking about getting some of the over sized ones, either Pro-taper or Renthal. But my question is do these bars mount into the stock clamps or do you also have to get new clamps? Is there anyway to tell if better handle bars would have survived this crash? I don't mind spending a little extra if it will help. That's only the 2nd time in 10 months I've bent a set of bars but it always leaves me with nothing to ride at the track. I guess another option is to just get a backup set?

If you go oversize (Pro Taper, Renthal FatBar or Twinwall) you will need new mounts or adapters. You could always go with 7/8" Renthal or the Pro Taper SE's for the stock mounts.

I just got a set of Renthal 7/8 handlebars for my cr85re and they fit fine in the stock mounts, and there awesome. :cool:

lol wtf?

but ya, I'd recommend, just getting a set of normal size bars, unless you want to spend the extra $$$ and get the bigger ones

you could get the pro taber contour, like the original only 20 dollars cheaper, but you would still need adaptors.

My KTM came with Renthal FatBars, and I must say: Those suckers are tough! I'd reccomend that you run oversize bars.
