i was gonna get the bbr bar kit but what i was wondering is if the billet aluminum throttle is better to have or will it break somehow cause if its better to have ill just find a kit that has the billet throttle any help i would appreciate thanks

 

Yes the BBR throttle tube will crack if you wreck really hard and the right bar end takes a big hit. But just do what I did and buy some sportbike bar ends. Cut out the end of the throttle tube and grips, install and enjoy.

 

I have the BBR bar kit and my throttle tube hasn't broke because I have these

 

get a pic of throttle side please if you can

 

It's not that complicated. Just cut out the end of the throttle tube. I used a utility knife to rough cut the whole, then a soldering iron (not mine) to finish it off nice and clean.

 

that's the way to go, they cost ten bucks and they'll save you at least ten pairs of grips ($10/pair).
here's mine:

 

ok cool thanks for the help so then would you say i should buy the bar kit that they are pretty good bar kit

 

personally i'd say no, don't get the bbr kit. if you're gonna pay all that money to get a complete kit i'd recommend one of the fast50s kits, yeah they are a little more $, but there have a lot more options as far as parts included, bar sizes, etc etc. and i think the quality of the fast50s stuff is a lot nicer than the bbr set. for even more dough, sano mx has a few different clamp options w/ their bar kit, but i'd still recommend the fast50s ****. but i think it's a huge plus to have the option of moving the bars foward 1/2 or not (on the clamp).

is that a fast50 billet throttle with the brake perch? if so i have the same thing and i'd like to put bar ends on it. as far as i can remember before i put the grips on that the throttle has a small hole at the end of it. did you have to cut the end off to have a bigger hole for the bar end? please let me know how before i get carried away with a dremel...

thanks,
fred

 

yeah fred that's whatcha gotta do... i used a die grinder and took off about 3mm off the end of the tube. there's other ways just be careful not to f*ck it up and it's sharp too. nothin to be scared of though it's easy to do. good luck.

thanks dude

 

Good **** fellas....I just got a BBR kit myself....got it for 160 shipped.

I hate the plastic throttle tube.. Wish I woulda got a fast 50s kit
