thats what i have on mine, and i haven't had any trouble with them. can't really go wrong for the price. they are good, but are still not as good as pro tapers, tags, or renthals. if you are on a budget, they are an excellent choice!!!

They are pretty strong for such a cheap bar. I buy them just to save my steering stem. I have had 2 sets now and have been using them for 2 years. If you get them...make sure the crossbar is straight and tight. If it isn't, they could bend easier. On my first set, I had a few rollovers and they are still good. The rolls ranged from just tipping the quad over to a complete roll. They stayed in tact. I think they are well worth the money. I doubt I buy a different set of bars.

Your friends' bars must have bent pretty bad before or maybe a factory defect. Both of my sets have been rock solid on some of the worst jumps. I cased a 60ft triple and landed on the bars and had no damage....except my wrists and feet hurt for the next 3 days. I cased another 25ft double 4 months after and the bars are still holding strong. They really aren't that bad and for 30-40 bucks...you can't beat that.

You might also want to look at the Tusk T-7 bars from Rocky Mountain ATV.. I'm not 100% sure but I think they're the same thing as the MSR Dominators. They seem to have the same bends and are made of the same material(T6 aluminum). You can pick them up for $21.99.

buy a cheap bar, and bend it=saving your stearing stem
buy good bars=bending yoru stearing stem!

its a hard decision!! I run a stock stearing stem, with Tag t-2 atv bend bars, ANd i love them!! they have been rolled 4 times and still straight as an arrow!

My buddie runns the domintaters, and he like them, ITs all yoru very own preffrence!
