Looking for an aftermarket grab bar that will still allow the tail light to be mounted and still have a clean look. I had an AC bar but with the tail light mounted it looked like I made all the brakets myself, very shoddy looking.
Something pretty strong would be nice too. Anyone have any suggestions? Any pics or links would be very helpful too. Thanks a bunch.

What do you guys think of the DG? Looks like the flag holder is in a bad spot.

I think I'm gonna buy the DG fat bar. Looks impressive on their website. Any comments?

I like the looks of the PRM bars. I had one on my 85 ATC250R. Not sure if I should go with the standard one or the wider one. I like the PRM over the DG and they are a lot cheaper!

DG is crap. prm is pretty much the best stuff you can get. i have the desert grab bar and love it, its very strong. also, since its wider, its a lot easier to move your quad around, and the tail light mounts up like stock.

I like the PRM grabbers. They look great and the fit/finish has been very good in my experience.

I polished my stock grab bar and love the looks of it. Slick and simple, honda.

Im sure the PRM is convenient, but it looks disgusting, all of them do. IMO

the only problem with the stock grab bar is its super weak. u stand it up doing a wheelie or 2 and its gone

I had ordered the DG but cancelled it and went with the PRM desert grab bar. I agree the stock one looks very nice but if you get it within a couple inches of the ground it bends. Thanks for all the info.

hey does the prm desert bar keep the quad from going over? dose it stop it and hold it up? or hit it and come back down ?

Thanks and prm will be the only bumpers and grab bars that go on my machines

DG= damn garbage
ac = ahhhh crap when you try to put it on!


it sucks prm's nerf bars came out so ugly :(

you can stand your quad up with the desert bar, about stopping you from flipping off backwards when you mess a wheelie up, i wouldnt know.
