Im thinking about useing them on my 03 636 im not sure tho i can do spredder O's & can stall to frog & spredders and all that i wanna try high chair O's but wit my streetfighter headlight on their i always bend it.... & i got my tripple clamp flipped already & have vortex clip on's & that helped i know i can pull through to a 50/50 but im a lil scared its a tight.. & i dont mess with 50/50 to much ..... i just didnt know how much dirt bike bars helped & how stoppies were with them & if i can run my Gpr V1 with dirt bike bars.....????

 

Man Im in the same boat as you, Mick and Scott pretty much talked me into DB bars I was looking into some yesterday...Im runnin the flipped stockers now and Im rackin my brain tryin to do a final decide on the DB bars or the Vortex clipons .....what do you think about the clipons Guru is runnin on his 636? Dunno if you seen or thought about them...... www.convertibars.com

 

it seems like alot more expence and trouble going with DB bars between getting longer lines and cables and all that drillin the tripple tree buying bar and mounts.. **** i didnt spend a dime flipin the stock clip-ons i guess it might be better for doin over under stuff ttho havein DB

 

i just put on db bars the other day and i gotta say i ****** love it!!! only thing that sucks is i didnt get longer throttle cables so when i turn right it kinks and throttle gets stuck... also the whole throttle mount spins on the bar... i jumped ss to spreader and my leg hit the throttle housin spinnin it and basically turnin off my throttle i had twisted... other than that i ****** love them do it up!!!!

 

If anybody wants to run a damper with Dirt Bars, this is Fullthrottle's new setup. It doesn't hurt that Bill is a mad scientist and comes up with the pretty sick stuff, especially because it works. The clamps go on any 50mm forks and the bars are notched so there's no chance of them pulling out.

dirt bars are gangsta!!! if u re rout ur lines right, u shouldnt need longer lines, i got dirtbars on vboth my bikes havent realy had a problem, use a little lock tight on the inside of the throttle and it should stop it from turning on ya. i say go with em, im running scary gary bars and i love the space and room that they have!!!!

 

Im picking up a pro taper setup tomorrow

Im new to DBs Is there any pertinent info about having, mounting, using DBs

 

cut the locator tab and turn em out or upside down....:YEAH hehehe but to each his/her own

 

I got a clamp already drilled w/ a set of black TAG clamps and some low rise bars if anyone is interested. I just took it all off yesterday. I will even include my custom bar ends.
You can reroute and reuse your clutch cable and throttle cables. You may be able to reuse your brake line but it will be tight. I got one 3" longer when I installed them.
$85 shipped takes it. Lot cheaper than a brand new setup and if you were going to do it yourself I saved you the trouble of trying to find the right spot to drill the holes. Here's some pics.

sweet i think im gonna switch here next week or so i gotta put my Hohey 4 piston set up on tomarrow... ill have my steel braded line & fitting for sale if anyone wants it

 

so u dont like db bars?

 

I do and I don't. They worked great for me. I just like the flipped clamp and clip-ons up top a bit better. It feels more like a street bike this way. With the db bars it felt, well, like a dirt bike. Like everything else on a bike, either way has its pros and cons.
Mainly, I ride to and from work on this bike and I never liked my gauge setup w/ the db bars. Plus, I just felt like it sat me too high up when cruising around at 65-70mph.
