I was wondering if anyone knew the size of the handlebars on an R and if the Rizoma Lux grips would fit. Thanks | ||
| Froggy |
All Buell's (at least XB and newer) use 7/8" bars. Just about any 7/8" grip or other accessory should fit. | ||
| Mizzou_buell |
Awesome thanks a lot, that's what I figured but wanted to make sure. | ||
| Brumbear |
CR uses 1 1/8" all the XB's except R are 7/8ths | ||
| Mizzou_buell |
All xbs except the R are 7/8ths? what's the r's? | ||
| Brumbear |
clip ons | ||
| Brumbear |
sorry the clip ons have a different set up but you can put bars on it I believe you must change the top tree so you can use bars on a firebolt and 1125R respectively | ||
| Froggy |
Way to go and confuse everything!  All XB and newer models are 7/8". What Brumbear meant to say, the clamp area on the 1125CR bars are 1 1/8", which wouldn't matter anyway. | ||

Nice looking grips................I just ordered some this morning myself  | ||
| Mizzou_buell |
Oh alright sorry, thanks a lot guys. | ||
| Biggie |
So what is the dia. On the R clip ons/bars? | ||
| Froggy |
As I posted before, 7/8". | ||
| Brumbear |
byt are they really bars if atree fell in the forest would you here it fall if I turn out the lights does color exsist I gotta give the booze a breather | ||
| Froggy |
If you weren't in the forest, no you wouldn't hear it fall. Sound waves are created by vibration, so the tree falling would still produce noise regardless of whether or not someone would hear it. Color is a derivative of the visible spectrum of light, so if you remove the source of light you remove the color. | ||

wow, way to go academic on his ass Froggy. any body using dirtbike style bars on their XBs? ive got an 03 XB9S and would like to fit a set of dirtbike style bars if it's advantageous. right now im running the CityX bars which feel good but i'd just like somthing different looking and styled. any suggestions and recommedations are appreciated. | ||
| Froggy |
Yes you can run dirtbike bars no problem. The clamp area is 7/8" on your bike, so you can run any bar that is 7/8" all the way through without an adapter. Watch out for cable lengths if you got higher. You can reroute the cables to get you some more slack, but if you need a few inches the Ulysses cables will work. |
