umm can you describe what you want and how much you wanna pay? i say go with fat bars but then you need the extra mount kit and if you crash your bars ain't breaking but if you have stock stem it will pry bend. I got tag x-5's which are decent bars but I think renthals are better, My bars flex a lot and squeek when they do. If you really want the best thats pro taper.

I also bent my stockers, but i just put a set of Renthal 400ex bends from trx400ex on them and love em, there stronger, lighter and look wayyyy better. I'd say go Renthal.

Do you have to get a mount kit for Pro Taper bars?

yes I think so if its the fat bars, but I don't think they make regular bars. Do you guys know how they make those fat bars? I saw a article in a mag and it was pretty interesting. it starts off as like 4in wide worth of a big diamiter pipe and they just keep stretching it and stretching it out and then bend them.

moose racing bars 16.99 cheapest bars....sure their not the lightest, strongest or best looking. but if u have a bad wreck and the bars do bend id rather buy some cheap bars then i dont care compared to 100 dollar bars....
