The Taperwall design provides the strength of a 1-1/8" bar at the clamp area while allowing standard 7/8" controls to fit on the ends, offering a balance of durability and compatibility.
The Carmichael bend is generally considered a popular, aggressive bend favored by many racers for its control and leverage. It's recommended to compare its dimensions to your current handlebars or consult with experienced riders/mechanics for personalized advice.
Yes, these handlebars feature cut guides that allow for accurate width reduction. Use a fine-tooth saw and ensure a clean, straight cut.
They are constructed from AS20 aerospace aluminum, known for its high tensile strength and durability.

Re-check and tighten handlebar clamp bolts to the specified torque. Ensure the handlebar is seated correctly in the clamps.
Ensure the clutch side is properly cleaned and free of grease. Reinstall the grip, applying grip glue if necessary, and allow it to cure fully.
Verify that you are using the correct controls for 7/8" bar ends. If the bar end diameter is obstructed, ensure no excess material is preventing fitment.
Ensure the bar pad is oriented correctly and that the center section of the handlebar is clean. Some pads may require a snug fit for security.
Setup: Ensure your motorcycle is equipped with 1-1/8" handlebar clamps. If not, you will need to purchase compatible clamps. Mount the handlebars onto the clamps and tighten them evenly to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications. Install grips, levers, and controls onto the bar ends, utilizing the knurled clutch side for a secure grip fit. Use the cut guides if you need to shorten the bar width, ensuring a clean and accurate cut. Attach the included high-density bar pad to the center of the handlebars.
Compatibility: These handlebars are designed for most motocross and enduro motorcycles that utilize 1-1/8" handlebar clamps. Always verify your motorcycle's clamp size before purchase. The Carmichael bend is a popular choice but riders should confirm it suits their body type and riding style.
Care: Clean the handlebars regularly with mild soap and water or a non-abrasive degreaser. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive pads that could damage the graphics or aluminum finish. Periodically check handlebar clamp torque to ensure security.
