Default Highway/Freeway Bars
I'm looking at getting some highway/freeway bars. Anyone have any suggestions on the brand I should get; Cobra, Baron, etc? Anyone have any pics to share with their bars installed?

I had the MCE bars on my bike, but took them off and sold to another member here. I think they looked good, it just wasn't for me. As Tallannie stated, do a search - there are many threads.

I have cobra bars on a C50.

Very happy with them.

If your getting hwy bars/crash bars mainly to have footpegs then another option to look at is MC Enterprises. They make lower profile hwy pegs for the M50 that don't require you to have the crash bars. I have them on my bike and I am quite satisfied with them.

MC Enterprises USA

Not on my computer right now. I can take some this weekend and post them. I'll try to do that. In the meantime go to mc enterprises website and select "products" at the top. On the left hand side fill in your bike info and choose Deluxe alligator pegs and it will take you to a close up pix of what it looks like.

Oh yeah by the way what's up with Brett Favre? Is he playing or not?

I went to the website but the pic that they have doesn't quite look like a M50 that's why I was asking for a pic of yours.

I'm not quite sure what Favre is going to be doing? As of right now everthing is rumors. I would like someone to say either way so the fans know what to look forward to this year.

I'm looking for a little of both. I also like how some engine bars look.

I like how those look but they are a little out of my price range right now. If I can find a lower price I might get it.
