    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

im looking for a lower set of handle bars for my 82 450t... and after browsing around here i think ill go with superbike bars... my question is, is that going to be to low. i dont want to mess with rear sets or anything like. but i still need to be able to ride this for 2-3 hours at times and be comfortable what do you guys think
 
It's a matter of personal preference. Only you can judge.

Daytona bars are popular here. A couple of inches taller than Superbike bars.
 
I have this set off of an 1100E.

What do your present bars look like?
Perhaps a trade?

That should work as long as they are not narrow.
I am fresh out of mid/high rise chrome bars and my '78 is borrowing some black bars for the time being.

Hi Ty, they are both pretty mild bars and as mentioned earlier its a very personal thing when setting up handle-bars and deeming what is comfortable. When its time for me to cover some big miles it can involve 10 to 12 hour riding each day for a few days and I find the clip-on bars on the Kat are fine however, clip-on bars are not everyone's idea of comfort, cheers.
