I did 400 mi yesterday on my s2 and by time I got home throttle wrist was killing me. I have the smaller diameter grips but the 4.5 in bars. I am thinking of making some taller custom bars. How tall will the stock cables go ? Any other good ideas to make these more comfortable? |

My combination on Rhonda is S2T bars and 2" drop pegs from KD. I've done much further than 400 miles in a day on her, at the end my wrists were sore but not painfully so. The other half of it is to get used to not holding your weight on the bars - I find if I remember to be a bit more "Elbows out" I am better off. |

I seem to do fine with T peg mounts and standard s2 bars. Homecomings (including 2-up for the '08 "parade lap") and plenty of 500+ days. Oh. And a Corbin gunfighter&lady seat. |

so I posted in the parts wanted section for the S2T bars - thinking why not give it a shot. Jeff Hoser - offered me some S2T bars the next day at a good price. I put the S2T bars and I am a very happy - can ride all day now. What a wonderful experience made possible by this board and the folks who visit it! |

You are welcome ! , I'm happy that pretty much all of the Buell stuff that was in boxes in my basement is now in the hands of people that can use it. |

I put the 2in drop pegs on comfortable. Any recommendations for adjusting the brake and boomerang shifter |

I find myself just picking up my feet for rear brake use or downshifts on my S2T. |
