If you didn't get OVERsize MX bars, then yes, BMX bars will be the same diameter for the clamp. The question will be whether the MX clamp is too WIDE for BMX bars, but I guess you'd have to measure the MX clamp width and measure some BMX bars and see if you have some room.... Hope that helps.

They feel like regular size dirtbike bars like on my Rm 125. SO my guess is they are regular size....I will just have to measure my clamp. I believe all my joker throttle and brake perch will go right on there too....I guess i just have to find a set of bmx bars that i like...any suggestions?

Why not trim the ends off of the current bar set?

If they are to wide, I wouldn't see why not?

Make sure theres enough room, for the brake/ect.

Trimming the ends off will make grips and the throttle stick out. I know of woods riders cutting 31 inch mx bars down to 26 with a crossbar on them. Just grind through them and MIG weld em togather.

how did you get this?...i trimmed down some bars i had on my 110 a while ago..and it moved my grips and throttle in...they only can stick out as far as the bars do...why would you wanna grind through them and mig them back together?...its not the clamp area where its too wide..its just the total bar width.
