I've seen some of these for a decent price and was just wondering what people thought of them? Or should I just pony up the extra $60 and go for the crossroads? I know this is all relative, but since its kind of hard to try without buying I figured I'd compile some opinions before dropping some cash. |

I got the vortex, but I have them on a M2 with S2 forks so I am able to put them on top of the clamps. I had Crossroads and went thru 2 pair. A small lowside can really do a number on them. And on the Vortex if you do all you have to do is buy another 7/8 tube from them or any suplier... |

Woodcrafts and Vortex's won't fit the X1 with the stock tank, er they will but you won't be able to turn it in the driveway. |

I had the same questions for my X1. I ended up getting a set of 4 way adjustable bars from Omars (www.omarsdtr.com). If you can't find them on the site, give them a call and get some info on them. They can be adjusted from a 2" rise to a 2" drop, are a little wider than the stock bars and clear the tank if adjusted properly. |

Thanks BL. You wouldn't happen to have a pic of how they look on your bike would you? |
