FAQs

Do I need special clamps for these handlebars?

Yes, these are 28.6mm oversized handlebars. You will need compatible 28.6mm bar clamps if your motorcycle is not already equipped with them.

How do I ensure the handlebars are straight?

Use the laser-etched alignment guide on the handlebars. This guide helps you center the bars in the clamps and set your desired rotation.

Can I cut these handlebars to a narrower width?

Yes, the handlebars feature cutting guide lines that allow you to shorten them if you prefer a narrower stance.

What is the main benefit of the 6.0" extra high rise?

The 6.0" rise provides a taller riding position, which can offer more leverage, improve comfort by reducing back strain, and provide better control, especially for trials riding.

Are these handlebars suitable for all types of riding?

They are specifically designed for performance motocross, enduro, and trials riding, offering durability and control benefits suited to these disciplines.

What is the finish on these handlebars?

The handlebars have a black anodized finish with a sandblasted texture and polished areas for lever clamps.

Are these a direct replacement for stock handlebars?

They are designed as an exact replacement for OEM parts in terms of fitment and function, provided your bike has compatible oversized (28.6mm) bar mounts.

Troubleshooting

Handlebars feel loose after installation

Ensure bar clamps and control perches are tightened to the correct torque specifications. Check for any debris between the clamps and the handlebar.

Levers do not fit correctly on the polished areas

Verify that your controls are designed for 28.6mm handlebars. Some older or standard-sized controls may not fit the oversized clamping area.

Cables or hoses are binding when turning

Re-center the handlebars and adjust the position of controls. Ensure cables are routed correctly and have sufficient slack. Consider if longer cables are needed for the new rise.

Anodized finish appears dull or scratched

Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials. Minor scratches may be inherent to the material's use in off-road conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: Begin by removing your old handlebars. If your new handlebars are oversized (28.6mm), ensure you have compatible bar clamps. Position the Apico handlebars in the clamps, utilizing the laser-etched guide for centering. Tighten the bar clamps evenly to the manufacturer's specified torque. Reinstall controls such as levers, perches, and throttle assembly, ensuring they fit snugly on the polished clamp areas. Check for any cable or hose binding as you turn the handlebars lock-to-lock. If adjusting the width, use the guide lines for a clean cut.

Compatibility: These handlebars are designed as an OEM replacement and are compatible with most modern motocross, enduro, and trials motorcycles. However, always verify that the 28.6mm oversized diameter is compatible with your existing triple clamps or bar mounts. Some aftermarket controls or accessories might require specific fitment.

Care: Clean the handlebars regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the anodized finish. Regularly check that all bolts and clamps are secure to maintain optimal performance and safety.
