it's a bar that extends outa the back end of your bike for doin 12 0' clock wheelies,(strait-up) so you don't beat up your rear end!

you could try www.midweststunters.com I'm pretty sure they made 12 bars for streetbikes, and 50s, but I'm not sure about quads! I don't really think you need one for a quad though, a grab bar works just fine, If you need to, go to www.stuntlife.com and register there, and ask in the dirtbike/atv forum, someone thre will know!

i'd just make your own, I cut a pipe in half and bolted it through the wheelie bar and then once it starts wearing down to the wheelie bar I change it. If you scrape a lot you'll need to change it a lot. One night of scrapin on mine and it was done.:o

just a couple things about scrapin:

if you use titanium it makes a TON of sparks and looks pretty sweet!

Also you will be able to scrape a lot longer if you turn up your idel.

oh yea, pavement+skin=hamburger.....:(

thanks for the replys, and yeah the stock grab bar works fine, but if you wheelie enough and are constantlly using it its going to bend up little by little, and once it gets high enough you start to scrape your exhaust up, so insted of replacing the whole sub frame id rather put a stronger one on. ill keep looking making one is the way to go though i think.

does anyone know if hardware stores would have titanium, or where I could find some?

Also, it would be cool if someone could bolt some skate board wheels on the grab bar!

cut off yours and make a couple holes and a 300ex grab bar will bolt right up. you could add a plate to make it last longer.http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid103/p5a67300b8cf845db800b74240f790622/f9a670b0.jpg
