I want to buy a grab bar thats big and long. i want to be able to pop and wheelie and not have to worry about flipping, cause i did it today and it hurt.
so whats the best/bigest garb bar
and i want a bumper that would look nice on my yellow 400ex what do you think the best would be?

umm just remember, longer= more leverage for the subframe to bend, just keep that in mind-darren

man, keep it stock. Were you riding a wheelie up a hill or something? Let go at least next time. I use to go on the wheelie bar all the time but next time just keep your foot by the brake ready to hit it. Really though the stock wheelie bar is enough imo to where you pretty much gotta try to flip it over with the exception of when you don't come back on right like you were doing one out of a donut or out of bicycling.

Not to be a show off but just to show I know a thing or two about wheelies:

Well If you really screwed yours up bad.... I think RPM makes strong grab bars. Don't always rely on it.


And do what Nausty said.....

DG makes a 6-pack rack that is pretty darn long...looks like crap IMO, but it will definately keep you from goin over....


...or...you could go to the local machine shop and have them fabricate a custom wheely bar, then have them weld it onto your swingarm somehow:huh :p

you guys are wussies!!lmao j/k but seriously tho, i dont even run a grab bar. i feel it makes me better when riding wheelies because im always that much more careful. i do some of the stuff nausty does and ive never went over. its alot more challanging to ride a can-can(i think thats what its called) wheelie with out one tho:p
