Handlebar
Measurements
All measurements are made in normal riding
position.

in a level plane.
Pull Back: Vertical lines from the furthest forward to rear
in a level plane.
Center Width: Straight flat section before the start of the
bends.
Width: Total
overall tip to tip width, no grips or bar end weights.
New cables and new brake
lines? When buying new bars, a rough formula
to follow is to measure the increased heigth + 1/2 the increased
pullback that the new bars will give you. This amount will be
very close to how much additional cable and brake line that you
may need. However, the best method is to fit the new bars to
the motorcycle and then make the increased length determinations,
if needed at all.
Additionally, make sure to allow
room for your new bars to clear your gas tank on full lock turn. |
