Renthal bars??
Hey all,
Want to fit some Renthal bars to my 1vj. Can anyone suggest which Renthals are the closest bend to the standard ones?? Cheers. |

I run a set of Enduro High bars on mine, which are pretty much the same height as the original, but with a little less sweep, and slightly less length in the grip area, due to a more gentle set of bends to achieve the rise. I find them really comfortable, especially when standing.
I ride it to work in Bristol occasionally, so if you want a look, PM me. |
Thanks for the info...i'll have to look a little deeper into it i think as i've only just got enough length in the grip area with the standard bars....maybe a set of enduro medium and some risers...
Great pic as well.. |

You'd be surprised how much you can cram on, though I have had to add a 15mm alloy spacer on each end in order to fit the bark busters. This is only because (due to an arm injury) I have to run the front brake from the left bar using a hydraulic clutch master cylinder. As well as clutch and switchgear, it all gets a bit crowded! With a standard set up, I think it would all fit ok. I've attached a clearer pic. BTW, the serial no on my bars is 613, rather than the 513 which is listed by Renthal for Enduro Highs. I think they may be the Dakar bars, but I can't find a current listing for them.
Glad you like the pic - it was taken in Morocco last April, just out of Mhamid on CS's route MS7/8: an ideal place to play with an XT! |
