Anybody got a set that they would part with? I had a very low speed low side and tweaked the handlebars...they are rideable for now but I need to replace them.

Thanks guys.

I may have a set of my 2005 somewhere. I'll have to look.

Hey Rob-
I see you live across the bridge in Jersey (I'll try not to hold it against you). I'm just southwest of Philly. I just ordered a set of bars from Ironpony which I thought were a good deal. I don't want to part with my originals, but if you'd consider another brand;

I like the cr low model. The crossbar is removable.

Thanks man I will check out that site. Maybe they will have something of a standard height, I have a set of 1" risers on there since I have short arms so I would like to keep it pretty close to stock dimensions.

cowboyup do you know the difference between the low/mid/high? Like how much lower was the low compared to stock?

I've got my stock bars laying around that I'd be willing to part with. Let me know if you're interested.

Sorry Rob, I don't know how much height difference there is between them. I don't think that any of them will be as high as the stock bars, though. I have the "lows" on a couple of bikes, including my Buell, I like the sportier position. After giving it some thought, I'm sure I won't need my original bars. If you want them, they're yours. I'll PM you my phone number.

I just wanted to say Thanks again to Ron(Cowboyup) I rode out to meet him today to pick up the bars. I really appreciate it and hope to get a chance to ride with you this summer.

Also Thanks to everyone else that offered to help out I appreciate it, just goes to show how great all the BadWebbers are.

glad you got a pair of bars. in future look into Pro Tapers dirt bars. Very similar look as the Uly bars if you take off the pad on the cross bar. i hit a truck and had to change mine. got a pair of tall quad bars for like $60 brand new. better riding position and has an inch left on the ends for bar end mirrors.
