best aftermarket bars?

in everyones opinion which after market handlebars are the best bet for the FZ6? im looking for a straight/straighter style bar that i wont have to worry about the tank getting dinged up...ive seen FZ1 bars on FZ6's around the forum, but it seems that equipment i dont have may be required in event of a screw up. let me know what you think!

Re: best aftermarket bars?

Kind of a dick move from someone with 8 posts

I had a set of those cheap bikemaster bars on my old bike and they got the job done, plus they have a bunch of different bends. I think I still have a set of the superbike bend laying around that I could test fit

Re: best aftermarket bars?

There are alot of available ones out there, im highly considering these ones
LSL Handle Bars for the price and quality these are a good choice.

Re: best aftermarket bars?

I'll post a pic of the bars I put on my 05 FZ6 (tonight). They are perfect...I didn't like the bend in the stock ones. I think I only paid $35.00 CDN for them too so you don't have to spend alot of money.

Re: best aftermarket bars?

I used to have drag bars on. About 5mm of clearance to the tank on full lock. A little wider than the stock bars, a little further forward. Couldn't fit my Yamaha screen with them though. They lasted until I fell off (in a ford of all places) and bent them. Got MT-03 bars on now. Check out the thread in this forum somewhere.
