Anyone run mx bars on their 400? my wifes 5' 6 and the stock bars on her 400 are bent and I have a new set of mx bars laying around that I may try to use. (honda bend but NOT a cr high bend) wondering if anyone rides with standard bend mx bars? seems like they would work sense shes short but I dunno.

most of the bars everyone buys are actually mx bars. I run cr high tags that are made for bikes. lol just about all of the renthals are also. unless you can get specs on them to determine if they are really high, any bar is the same just different lol. If she thinks the stockers are a bit high she will like cr highs, they are about an inch and a half shorter than the stockers and will be perfect for someone around 5-6" imo. steve

sweet, sound like these will work then. They are just fly bars but they are the nicer pairs fly makes that are normally like $45-$50. My local shop isnt going to be selling them anymore so they are all on a closeout sale for $14 a pair. I should go pick up a couple more pairs just to have lying around.
