Now...i grew up racing bmx i think i raced for about 9 years or so...so switching to riding my 400ex on ramps and such i tried to set it up like a bike...i switched the stock bars out for tag motocross bars with a 1 1/2" rise...well about a week ago i rolled it and broke the bars...so when i was at the shop lookin through the bars i decided to try a bar that has a crazy like 4" rise...because i noticed when trailriding fast the lowrise bars were hard to use standing up...well...the new bars feel great riding trails...but absolutely horrible for jumping...so basically i was just wondering what u guys ride so i can have a lil comparison...thanks guys

i use this ^ Trail Tech X-Bar Clamp with Moose Flex Series CR-HI(fat bars), they are the exact same height as stock but a tiny bit wider and not as much pull back ..
there really great for trail riding and racing .. my self, i wish i went with a little taller bend like a 115 or 120 mm, my arms arent exactly long and i have back issues .. but to anybody there a great set up, just go buy the trail tech x-bar, they have more room at the end of them bars so you can mount everything properly

I use the ProTaper high bend ATV bars. They are a little taller and wider than stock bars.

I run an Atv High Renthal, Im switching to a Trail Tech to try them out , plus a ROX +1 riser, to me my +1 stenm isnt enough. I wish I could afford the Flexx bars, I wanted a straitghter bar and the Renthal is the straightest /hightest I could find over everything

Does anyone know where I can get a 2 or 3 inch riser for my stock bars? Also, will my cables and brake line be long enough? It doesn't look like they will be, so where can I get longer cables and line? (but obviously I don't give a damn about the parking brake cable :D )

On some pro pegs, then pegs come straight out from the mount. On the stock pegs, the mount is lower and the peg is above the mounts.

If that made sense....mine are lowered.
