Heli-Bars Wanted ASAP

I called HeliBar and they are 3-4 weeks out on delivery! Anyone have a used pair for sale or know of somewhere a new pair is in stock? I would like to have them on before the trip to Laguna and 3-4 week wait just doesn't make it. Thanks, Ozzy.

Slightly higher up (1/2") & further back (3/4")than the stockers. Mount in the stock locations. Overpriced ($200), heavy steel, but they do help the wrists some.

Check them out @ http://www.helibars.com/

I'm selling mine just as soon as I get the next alternative, the Spencer Cycle billet aluminum triple-clamp w/1.5" risers for the stock bars. Much higher, slightly higher priced for a complete triple clamp. Gonna be at least a few weeks-a month before I get around to it...

Anyone out there got the Spencer triple clamp who can give a ride report?

EBD!!!

I'd be interested in your used Heli-bars when you get the Spencers...if the price is right ...lemme' know, ok?...I might even make a quick trip up there to ride some and get the bars from you...

They are already spoken for by "Ozzy." He offered me $125 & that's a pretty good deal I figure. If he backs out, your next in line.

FYI, I am NOT happy with them; the improvement is so slight as to not be noticable on the first few rides. Some say they are a "huge" difference, I disagree. That's why I'm doing the Spencer Cycle thing shortly...

cool...

...hmmmm, something to think about...I kinda' like the stock position and how it weighs the front during aggressive cornering...I don't want to deviate too far from stock...but a little 'relief' would be welcomed...feedback from the Spencer set-up would be interesting.....
