When I wrecked and blew my knee out in March, I totally wrecked the bars. Wanted to see if anyone could recommend what to go with. Bike is a 2000 Sherco 290 and I don't want to swap the mounts out.

Let me know what bars you like....

Thanks

Hey Tom .. Going to be riding soon ?? Last year when i finished restoring my TY I bought a set of Pro-taper trials bend bars from Bob Ginder @ B&J racing and they were 7/8" bar and came in low , medium or high bend . very comfortable . Hope to see you at the ridge for the "Winter Series" We have some GREAT stuff there !! Chad

Hey Tom, I've got some barely used Renthals in the Kuriyama bend, they were spares when I was on Scorpas and never needed them. I like the GasGas Fatbars now. Call me and I'll make you a smoking deal on them! Mark.

Tom,

I would second the choice of the Kuroyama bars, which are the same as 5.0 inch Renthals and the standard for 90% of the 7/8" bars out there.
Mark on a Scorpa, a trip down memory lane...

Chad,

Looking forward to checking out the Ridge. Maybe we can hook up before the series. Larry Klein has got me back riding after a forced layoff of nearly 2 years.

Darrell,

Yes, I'm planning to make Ringgold. Looking forward to riding the new venue and shaking off the cobwebs. (Is it clutch on the left, brake on the right?)

Thanks Chad. I'll look at the calendar and see what we can do. I'd like to try and bring a couple of the boys and maybe make it a weekend.
