Wanted a set of 96 S2T handlebars for my 95 S2 to make it easier on my back | ||

I wish you luck! Last time I was looking for some of these, and that's been several years, they were unobtainium. If you do find some, ensure they have the proper end treatment where they are welded to the ring that clamps on the fork leg. IIRC, you want the ones that are crimped, then welded, not the ones that are ground off and the open side welded to the ring. Someone might chime in and verify that, or dig into the Knowledge Vault.

Leftcoastal is right, look for the dimpled/crimped bars in the area where the clamp is welded to the upright, and avoid the notched bars. A dealer can access Buell Service Bulletin # B-007 (Recall 0804) which has clear photos of the good vs. bad. | ||

Here's a screenshot. What's the best way to post .pdf files on badweb?  | ||

I have a set it got with a set of forks. I don't know if they are good or bad. If you send me an Email to Baileyj76@hotmail.com I will send you pictures. Make me an offer. | ||

those bars are aftermarket ones - not the stock Buell units. Forgot who made them - Vortex? or something like that? You are as unlikely to find those as the factory S2T units. Like a lot of the parts on these early bikes, not many made, even fewer left. Good luck with your search. I'll keep an eye peeled here on the left coast for ya. Al | ||

Will buy or trade lowest of three height 1 inch handlebars for highest S2T 1 inch bars |
