MY stock handlebars are bent and i need to replace them, i don't want to spend alot of money on them probably under 75$ and i would like to stay with the same feel as the stock ones; what would be close to stock? I am putting them on a 400 ex.

I have some Renthal 400ex bend bars that I like alot. The quad has been upside down a few times and they are still holding strong.

If you like the stock feel, then you want to look for aftermarket handlebars in the 400EX bend. You can buy both 7/8" standard and 1 1/8" fat bars in 400EX bend; your choice depends on your particular needs.

you can pretty much get the same feel bar in any brand. So dependablity and strength is what you need. Id either get the tag X5 bars or go right to the tag t2 bars, these are fatbars and feel amazing.

My vote is also for renthals, I have had nothing but good luck with mine.

if you don't have a problem crashing I would say go back with stock, but you can probably get a set of renthals cheaper than stock honda parts. Fly makes some pretty good bars that are cheaper than renthals

Yep, I've had Renthals on all 3 of my quads, rolled the 250EX loooots of times, never broke or bent or even showed signs of stress.

renthal 400ex bend is right for you, I have some renthals and have crashed pretty hard going about 40mph and didnt even bend the handlebars.

I think they have a warrenty that if you bend them, they will replace them for free, am i right ?
