i wanted to post this for eveyone. i know a lot of people are always looking for handlebars and i am too. this past week i decided on a set of Mentele Handlebars from Klock Werks. i really like the black bars and the 1-1/4 look with internal wiring. the problem is that they are not the 16" pull back that the company advertises. at best these things run about 10". with the low height and onyl that pull back, they are just too much of a stretch. now i am 6-1 and have a longer wing span but i can't use these bars at all. i like the look but they are not going to work. i have a bfore and after picture attached if you would like to see them. it was a fair amount of work for nothing. so now i am trying to return the bars and start looking again.
oh and also adding on the mini tach kit as soon as it shows up..
