rhamm08 Posted August 8, 2010 Posted August 8, 2010 I am considering putting The barons star bars on my 2008 rsv. Does anybody near the Sacramento,Ca area have these on their venture. I would like to see them on a bike before I decided to do it. Can anybody help?
Sylvester Posted August 8, 2010 Posted August 8, 2010 You would get the same with a set of RSTD bars. I have them and they work great.
Seaking Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 You would get the same with a set of RSTD bars. I have them and they work great. The problem I have with my stock bars is just the grip 'angle'.. I feel I need my hands turned outwards more.. will the RSTD bar do this for me or is it the same angle but a wider / longer bar?
rhamm08 Posted August 11, 2010 Author Posted August 11, 2010 Do the RTD bars fit without the barons risers?
rhamm08 Posted August 14, 2010 Author Posted August 14, 2010 Ok is there anybody within a few hundred miles of Sac Ca. that has Barons star bars on their Venture?
DONATALIE Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 Sylvester, Did you have to change the cables and/or wiring to use the RSTD bars? Thanks
Sylvester Posted August 27, 2010 Posted August 27, 2010 You do not need the risers for the RSTD bars to work. I changed my cables to 2" longer (mostly because I wanted stainless), but others have not changed theirs but did re-routethe throttle cables.
rhamm08 Posted September 16, 2010 Author Posted September 16, 2010 I just installed the barons star bars on my 2008 rsv. I had to use the barons risers but the stock cables worked with re-routing throttle cables. Seems to be a great mod. I just need to put the stock rubber back in for fairing support!
