Yamaha bar bend?

[green machine]

Anyone here with Yamahas find the factory bars uncomfortable,i can't find a happy medium with adjustment........i've always had Kawis which have 971 renthals,i liked them.....i know bar bend preferences are wide and varied but would be interested to here opinions.........I've heard Windhams are popular,i'm 5/11

Yeah i tried 20mm risers but didn't feel right......to get the right feel at the grips i.e flat,i have to roll them back to the -1 marking,which makes them too low,,plus my top clamp has 4 clamp positions so i moved them to the very front but it puts the centre of the bars,in front of the centre of the fork.....

thought bout getting taller risers zeta do them up to 65mm from 30mm in 5 mm steps

If you like the Renthal 971's fit a set or try a Windham/CR Hi bend, KTM Renthal bend has the least pull back if that's your issue. Also check out GYTR top triple clamp sets as these have more adjustment build in.
