Default RE: Much needed advice on bars

ORIGINAL: JRK5892

i have pulled wires though Z bars it was a pain but worked with some twine and an air compressor... he can blow the string though then pull it ... or fishing line(what i usually use) sharp bars man they look sick... where does he live? maybe we can help him out... i am always willing to help out a forum member... if he is near chicago, he can bring them to my shop and i will do as described above for him... hell he will prob want to ride with us... if oyu are 49 he is right around our crews age i am sure... just a thought...

Thanks for the offer and if he didn't live in Oregon I know he'd look you up for the help and the riding. Do you know if he would need to swap out the cables and to what length? Really appreciate all the help you all have given.

.......I tried to give my son my sporty last night and he refused because "bikes are dangerous".

I'm up for adoption!
