Been looking everywhere online for the 0 degree Crossroads handle bars. Looked in the American Sportbike store but no joy.
Any help or website links would be great.
Thanks
 
I'd love to pick some up. Just wish they were cheaper. Buying after market bits is a slipery slope for me. I need to pause every now and again to ask myself "do i realy need that". What am I saying...of course I do.
 
I'm going to get a set also they are by far the sickest bars out there for the XB's. The stock bars are to upright I feel like I'm riding a dirt bike. I mean their cool for around town but on the freeway I don't feel comfortable tucked with my bars in my chest at high speeds.
 
Five1, thanks for the website... kinda pricey aren't they..... anyone got any other suggestions for different bars with a little bit more aggressive ride like the crossroads or little less, at least lower than the stock ones.
Heard rizoma do bars.... anyone using them??
Thanks alot.
 
Don't have any pics available but Clubman make bars that fit the XB and give an even more agressive pisition than Crossroads for less that half the price. I have to admit though I don't like the style as they are a tubular bar. Kind of like if you took the stock bars, flipped them upside down and put extra bends in them to reach farther forward.
 
His&Her, are you talking about the Clubman cafe racer bars? I got a set on my CB550 that only cost $25. I never even thought of trying to fit them to my Buell, but they are 7/8. [smirk]
 
The Clubman's don't fit, so close though. Just not enough clearance in the center of the bars to clear the forks and seat in the clamp properly. I guess you would have to get one of those bar clamp riser deals to do this. And in my opinion it would just look ugly after all that.
 
Yeah those are the same width as mine in the middle 11". In Fact I'm pretty sure their the exact same bars I have.[sad]
 
Bummer. That would have been a cheaper, a retro alternative. The crossroads bars look OK...but a bit of a rip off.
 
Here is the pic of the clubmans that I saw. I guess it't required extra clamp for a riser to clear the fork tubes.

This one is a factory Lightning bar. Cut and reweld. Not too bad actually.

WOW those rewelded ones look great, they did a nice job [up] But i'm disappointed in them, they should have finished them [sad]

1) chrome dip
2) powder coat
3) paint

All that nice work and they didn't finish them off. I really hope that was the mock up to check fitment :)
