custom handlebars
04 Jun 2010 01:34
built me some kz-specific, one-off z bars to better suit the bike. used cutoffs from the stock bars and some 1" tubing, pretty happy with them so far. just buffed finish, id like to polish and chrome them eventually, maybe. probably just leave em like that tho. quite a bit of pullback for what im used to, but not gonna kock em till i get to go out and try em. anyways enjoy.

Those look better than any of the bars that you have tried on that bike so far. They fit your style well. Kinda look like upside-down clubmans with sharp corners. So what kind of tubing did you use? How did you weld, MIG or TIG?

i used 1" dom for the main part of the bars, and for the grips and risers i just used bits cut from a set of stock bars, and i have a mig, cant afford a tig welder for this kind of stuff yet. maybe if buisness picks up in the next few years, but who knows.
