The Bar

Hello, i'm looking to buy a set of handlebar pull back risers for my dragstar 650. I'm a bit (to say the least..) confused about size... I find a lot of riser sets on internet dealers, but like 90 % is for harley..... also don't want to order in the states, i'm not so patient to wait for 8 weeks or so. Basically, the diameter of the risers i have now is 32 mm (so 1 1/4 inch i guess). Is that some kind of standard in motorcycles, or are sizes between brands different? Also, when they speak of 4 inch risers, is that 4 inch from the point of the upper plate, or from bottom of the riser (as they are still more than 1 inch inside the upper ball plate.. So as you see, …

I am 13 and I wrecked my TTR 230 hard on a trail with lots of mud and the handle bars hit a rock and bent them bad. I was wondering what size handle bars do I need for my bike. I want the same size as the originals, but I want moose handle bars please help me.

My brother in law bought my old 2000 fazer from me . Today he came over and asked me to take it for a ride as it doesnt feel right . So i did and when ur driving straight the handle bars arnt straight there slightly turned to the left . He said he didnt drop it r anything and ive compared the handle bars size lenght etc with my 2002 fazer and they look ok . Does anyone no what else it could b ? What to check etc Thanks

'Mock Ye May' but Ive just found an idea long handle, nylon bristled brush which is idea for cleaning those inaccessible parts of your bike and car. Its long nylon bristles can get in between the cylinder fins, exhausts and into parts other brushes cant reach. Oh - ere! I bet its useful for under the wheel arches etc on the car. The long handle saves the olde back! What is this fantastic device and cost? A bog brush. Only 49 pence from my local JYSK shop (but Im sure there is other cheap suppliers) Have you any penny pinching hot tips? ATB J
