I am looking for a set of aluminum bars that are most like the stock
ones in terms of dimensions. Which ones do you all use? Will aluminum
bars cut back much on the vibes~~~~????~~~~~ Thanks, Dave>>>

Hi Dave,
I recently installed a set of Renthal 666 bars on mine - 7/8 twin walls.
The width is the same as factory KLR bars; the rise is slightly lower
(approx. 1 inch), the sweep is about the same, and they have the same long
crossbar...on which I mount all kinds of goodies - about $60.00 retail. I
also added brass inserts to help reduce the vibration.
Cheers,
Scott

Hey David,
I also replaced my bent stock bars with the Renthal 666 bars.I filled
mine up with silicone caulking and added 1 inch risers.I love mine.So
much less vibration that the stock bars.
I also have maier handguards and I had to make a crossmember about
1/2 inch longer to accomodate the maier handguards.
Regards,Gary

Scott,
How do you compare the Renthal 666 bars to stock for vibration?
What about before and after for the brass inserts?

I have started a new Smugmug site with some of the pictures I've taken
in the 13,000 miles I've but on my KLR 650 so far this year. Enjoy!
