The bars really don't make that much of a difference. Some say it changes your balance point there fore making it easier to 12 but how is that if you are doing no handers. All and all its all about comfort and if you can do the trick with clip-ons then you can do it with MX bars.

hahaha
the chicken came first, no, then egg did, no, the chicken did........ blah blah blah...
i dont care who says what..... people would not go to the "BARS" if it wasnt an advantage. anyone who says they arent are just defending themselves.(which i would do the same) Sure, there are guys goin just as far on stoppies with stock clip ons, but thats not the point. i agree, either you can do a trick or you cant, but unless yer just being stubborn, you have to agree that the bars make it EASIER! cuz if you tell me that a 900 ft stoppie with stock clip ons is just as easy as it is with DIRTBIKE BARS, yer on crack! as far as circles and stuff, maybe, maybe not, im not sure, but on stoppies, 100% sure that BARS=ADVANTAGE.. i dont think its cheater, i just think they belong on dirtbikes.

Call now and receive an unlimited supply of circle wheelies at no additional cost.
(as for cheating, I have yet to receive my stunters rule book or have yet to see a referee........so game on!)

i think it takes away from the style of american freestyle when you swap out for the bars...the attitude and the look are the things that set us apart from the euros...you take that away and?...
next thing ya know, someone will see a benefit in wearing a tight spandex riding suit, and open face helmet too....ROFL
j/k, ride the setup ya wanna ride and enjoy it....its supposed to be fun, right?

Instead of buyin a new triple tree you could, if you have the skillz, drill an tap yer stock tree an install the risers, and bars that way. dunno if it would work on a gixxer, or not though haven't taken a good look at the top of the tree on one.

Look. It's kinda lame that I have to preface this, but let me preface this. I'm not tryin' to hate. Gorka, NickMIST, and the rest of the MX barred crew... you're better than me. I'm not hating or calling you guys cheaters. That having been said...
A modification makes said stunt in question....
a.) easier
b.) harder
Which is it?
It's really just common sense with a hint of logic. Surely nobody is suggesting that MX bars make it harder? Or do some guys just like the challenge? Thus, it must make it easier.
Changing bars offers an advantage in feel, control, and balance point. That's why it's easier to roll one on my BMX bike than it is on my 10 speed.
Finally.... if it's not easier... switch back to clipons and let's see what you got?

I looooove high bars on sport bikes, either owned or ridden lots of different fighters with high bars. If done right it's a good feeling riding them. Sometimes though the change in weight bias can bugger some bikes up if a few changes aren't made. All good though!!!
