Title: Need handlebar recommendation for higher rise than "superbike"
Post by: OnlyCrimnson on May 09, 2021, 12:31:05 PM
Both my RD's have the superbike style bars on them, but they are just too low for my back anymore. Is there a size/style that maybe is between the stock height (5.5" rise?) and the superbike style that would be a good fit? Appreciate any input!

I like the Honda CR mid-height bars.

A "Euro" style is a little higher and wider.

I like Renthal dirt bike handlebars.  As a fellow back-issues sufferer, I wonder if a few inches of rise is high enough for you?

Stock RZ350 bars are as low as I want to go and I find them comfortable on that particular bike. Like Mike, I've had past back issues with a L3-5 fusion 7 yrs ago as well as a total right hip replacement 5 yrs ago. I find the stock higher bars comfortable on both my 72 H2 and 76 GT750. If you are in pain or suffering from either back or hip issues, see a specialist and get things taken care of. It WILL give you back the mobility and freedom you once had!  :clap:
