Anyone Tried Different Handlebars ? was created by Tonto
I have some minor refurnbs to do over winter (including new brake hoses, cables and bar grips), and was thinking of ditching the original bars, as I find they pinch inwards too much, and dont feel as natural to me as my other bikes. Maybe I just have odd wrists :lol:
I was thinking of putting a set of Z1 / Z900 bars on my Z13 as they seem about the same height, but I prefer the more open bar position.
Was wondering if anyone else had swapped bars for any reason ??

I used to run the drag bars as they are known nowadays, they were good for touring when I had no screen but after I fitted a screen I didn't have the wind taking some weight and my wrists got very sore so I went back to the stock bars and a sit up and beg position. I always felt that the stock bars needed to be about 2 inches wider and back about an inch for me to be just right.

I changed the bars on my kz for the same reason. I bought the low rise bars from Zparts and am very happy with them.
