    I need handlebars

    So I took my handlebars off of my 82 gs1100gl and i torched them and bent them forward a little bit (i'm a tall guy). It turned out very well. Unfortunately someone in the shop mistaked them with trash one night and threw them out. I wasn't too happy. Anyways I would like to get the same size bars just with less pullback and not too expensive. Any ideas? Thanks!

      yea i didn't really like those bars. Any suggestions on new ones? I just need enough room on the bars for my grips/mirrors/starter button/choke etc. I can't seem to find any. Does anyone know what good measurements are?

        Just replaced the buckhorns off of mine with some emgo bars from z1enterprises. Might be what you are looking for. They were pretty cheap too. Can see them here.

          I have my stock bars sitting here still. You an have them if you want them. I don't know what shipping would be. Off of a 82 650G, I have no idea what measurements are, or if it's even close to what you're looking for.

              I got these thinking they would be a little different from the buckhorn stockers. They actually pull back at a similar angle but I bent them and they are a big improvement over the stockers now. A little more rise which might lead to some good-natured ostracism here but, hey, you're a tall guy.
