Did we ever hear back from drmortalcoil on the Flanders A25 bars fit to a XB9S?
I was thinking about some Flanders B25 bars to make a more flat track style seating position.
When you drill the bars for wiring is there any special tricks to deburr the edges?
Thanks,
DBird

I put XB bars on a blast so the blast bars will most likely fit the xb/S It will give about a 6" rise.

Check out AFAM's high dirt track bars at www.afamusa.com

I bought a set of Triumph bars on Ebay and should get them in the next week or so that should come real close to these dimensions. If not, I am only out around $30 and an hour or two of my time.

Will post again when I install them.

no special trick to deburring. Just get a round steel file and go at it until the hole feels like the lip of a coke bottle all the way around inside and out. It's REALLY important to make the hole edge profile look like half an "O", too angular of an edge will act like a knife and eventually slice the wires.
