DocStark · 12-19-2007, 05:12 PM

hey maniac, do you have any more problems scraping the pegs on the twisties or tight turns...and how bout those c50 bars, does them make quite o bit of differance for ya, cause i need somethin a little bit closer to my body

Breeze · 12-19-2007, 05:17 PM

I have the C50 Bars on my M and I like 'em a lot. Much better reach.

ollirrap · 12-19-2007, 05:18 PM

mine has the 2inch drop on it. these pics arent at good angles to see how much its lowered. but theres one with my bro sitting on it to show you how low it rides with one person on it. he weighs 185 to 190lbs.

Hey Doc,

Scraping, Hmmmm, If you ride like you would a crotch rocket, yes, you'll get plenty, I scrape in super tight turns every once in a while... now the boots is a whole 'nother issue, I scrape them for fun now

, I weight 200Lbs..... As far as the bar goes, it makes it feel like a big cruiser (VStar or the like) but it's very comfy for short or long rides, I like it a lot better than the stock. Add the forward controls and you have the perfect riding pose...for me at least..

DocStark · 12-20-2007, 02:49 PM

hey appreciate the help and the pics, im a light guy,only 130, so i think i can git away with the 2,2.5, or 3, even if i do try to throw it around like a crotch rocket.
i think im gonna start lookin into the the c-50 bars too. hey olli, what kind of pipes are them short ones

I lowered mine 2 inches and it looks great just need to get a low resolution picture to post it. The only thing to consider with the 3 inch is the loss of kickstand space. You really have to pay attention to how you park it now so it does not tip.
