Has anyone put stronger handlebars on their Ulysses. If so, what recommendations do people have, please? I wouldn't want to change the riding position at all, but I was wondering whether Rental or someone similar did a fat bar that was a direct replacement for the OE bars.

There is no Fatbar direct replacement, because fatbars are 1 1/8" at the clamps, and stock clamps only fit 7/8" centers. The way to do a Fatbar conversion is with Precision Engineering Fatbar adapters.

Here's the setup I ran for a while, with the Precision Engineering bolt-on adapters and An OSX One fat bar (Fatbar is Renthal brand, but there are many aftermarket oversize handlebars with 1 1/8" center and 7/8" ends).

Turf moor-- I looked into this some, and wasn't able to find a bar that was close to the same as stock bend (I like the stock bars , too). I was OK with the 7/8 dia, but was hoping for a good quality aluminum bar. If you find something let us know.

Winbook TW700 Windows tablet for datalogging and tuning. I don't have it anymore though; sold it and upgraded to a Lenovo Yoga 3 11" Ultrabook.
