Is anyone running the TAG X-5 bars? what bend do you have(what bike do u have)CR hi, CR low, quad or KX bend? Do they look better and work as well or better than renthal? I think these are the bars for me but I really want 400EX bend but i dont think they have them. Also the cheapest I have seen these is $69.99

I run copper quad bend x-5 bars. I love them. I believe that they are about the same as renthals. I got mine for 49.99(new) though so that is a big difference

I think they are close, I think that they are really confortable. I got mine from a guy I know who gets dealer cost.

I have the quad bend copper bars too. They are about .5" lower and just a hair wider then stock 400 bars. They are very solid (suposidly 20% stronger then renthals becuase they are thicker inside then a regular bar) I highly suggest them to anyone. If I got them again, I would probably get a lower bar, but the quad bend is really nice.

Yeah, I just like the way the copper looks, it is just a coating. The pull back seems to be about the same, it is hard to tell because I sat on it and got them rotated just right for me, which my stockers whern't quite. If you are taller, you can position them more forward, and if you are shorter you can lean them back more. It is up you you. They are really nice bars. I used scott huricane atv grips, and they are awsome!
