12 oclock bar...which width?

I am about to order the bad phish 12 bar, but am not sure which width to buy.

There is the 10 inch and the 8.25.

Does anyone here have either of these, and if so, what is the pros/cons of the wider or narrower bar?

My question is concerning the bar width.

I think baker also offers a couple different width sizes....

the original is much narrower than the new style one. Which do people prefer?

wide or skinny?

I would get the wider one.. a friend of mine has the narrow one and its really only good for scraping, he can do ape hangers on mine but not on his.....I have the FI bar and its pretty wide I can do apehangers and spreader 12's on it, the new baker bar (the wider one) looks very similar to mine (as far as the scraping surface is concerned anyway) hope this helps

Star Skrape999: I just ordered the half bar and it isn't the whole bar, its a replacement peice. So I went and picked up a bad phish bar(the second one). I like it alot! I would recomend that one! Plus it looks like my half bar will fit on that so if I wanted I could interchange them.

Like the Pontiac Grand Prix commerical(sp?) wider is better!!!
The wider bar makes stunts much easier since the bike is more stable.
I have a FI bar and love it. The wide verison of the Baker Bar looks simular so I would say it would be nice also.
