SW-Motech Nonshock Handle Bar

[Turk]

I believe WASP had this on his bike..anyone else can comment on this? Pros and cons? My handle bar is crooked after a drop and I thought of replacing it with this one.

I sent an email to this company.. http://www.fasstco.com/, they make the Flexbar with is the same(I think), as the Sw-motech.

Hello Jim,

Thank you for your interest in the Flexx Handlebars! I am confident you are going to be stoked on the performance and abuse reduction they will offer you. I spoke with my boss about the correct bar for the Super Tenere 1200, we are currently finding out the best solution possible for that bike. We are testing with some longer handles to get the most control room for the ST. We will have should have a Flexx Handlebar to fit that bike perfectly soon. If you have any questions at all please let me know, we will keep you updated.

I'll be looking forward to hearing back from you.

Thank you, have a great day!

What size are the bar clamps on the S10?...they're definitely bigger than 7/8".

Thanks, I'm not used to having bigger bars...and these do some serious tapering.

Hello all! I have been working with FAAST over the last month and a half back and forth to work out a FLEXX bar solution for the ST. The problem of having enough room for all the controls seems to be solved with the use of longer handle sections. The only remaining things are sorting out handguards, appropriate bar end weights, and throttle lock so it all works well together. FAAST have had access to an ST to check clearances and so on. Am giving them a little more time and hope they come up with a good product. BTW, it is made in the USA. So here`s hoping.......... ::017::

Sounds good.. How much pull back were they looking at.

As I recall about half of the angle back of the OEM. I find the OEM bar way too swept back for my wrist to bar ergonomics. Will wait and see. ::017::
