Author Message   Andymnelson Posted on Monday, August 01, 2011 - 11:14 am:        Hey all- My little brother's girlfriend just bought an '05 XB12R (that makes 6 Buells in the family! ). The bike has Heely Bars on it- a custom triple clamp and higher clip ons. I can not find info on them anywhere- just want to do some research on them. Can you help out?   Jandj_davis Posted on Monday, August 01, 2011 - 12:03 pm:        That would be Helibars. www.helibars.com I have them on my bolt. They are AWESOME   Andymnelson Posted on Monday, August 01, 2011 - 12:08 pm:        lol, the ad and the new owner both spelled it Heely. Thanks. We all found the position to be awkward. I prefer to actually sit up or be more aggressive....it's an odd "in between" position. Sure looks nice tho.   Andymnelson Posted on Monday, August 01, 2011 - 12:15 pm:        BTW, for those wondering what we're talking about, I found these pics (once I started spelling the name correctly! ): They are stock in natural aluminum, the black ones were powdercoated by the owner.   Honolulu_blue_esq Posted on Monday, August 01, 2011 - 01:35 pm:        If she doesn't like them, take em off and post them in the "for sale" section. They are in relatively high demand and go fast from what I've seen because they aren't made anymore. For what its worth, I put them on my 08 bolt about a month ago and am still deciding on them. The riding position is more comfortable for me, but I feel like the handling isn't what it was before. Still good, but not great. Might just be in my head.   Xb12randy Posted on Monday, August 01, 2011 - 02:03 pm:        I would gladly trade you even swap for my 07 Bolt triple tree and bars. There Mint. I'll pay shipping both ways.   Andymnelson Posted on Monday, August 01, 2011 - 02:51 pm:        I'm sure you would Randy I'm betting she'll ride it this way for the season, and then decide. I've seen some sell used for more than they were new!   Slaughter Posted on Monday, August 01, 2011 - 03:37 pm:        Funny - the title got me to look and see just what the heck a "HEELY BAR" was. (Glad I don't have to buy another accessory now)   Damnut Posted on Tuesday, August 02, 2011 - 01:02 pm:        The one with the black bars looks familiar.   Andymnelson Posted on Tuesday, August 02, 2011 - 02:11 pm:        Amazing, huh?   Zooski Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 09:15 am:        Try: http://www.americansportbike.com/shoponline/ccp0-p rodshow/A16503.html They work great! I have had some for a few months now and I love them   Andymnelson Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 10:27 am:        Agreed that they work great....but she doesn't like the more upright position   Roycet4 Posted on Wednesday, August 03, 2011 - 02:29 pm:        How about a conversion kit from Spiegler http://spieglerusa.com/handlebar-conversion-kit-42 23.htm
