    Thanks for pointing out the clutch controls fit on the bend. My cheap rizoma bars do the same thing. Not too happy with it, I wish it was more length on the grip section. I need a flat seat too.

    High ended my grom going over the top of a hill. everything is pretty much still stock on it and i ended up bending the handle bars and breaking off the foot peg as well as a couple other minor things so I'm taking the time to fix and upgrade everything

    Pro taper handlebars
    12bar/Tail protector
    And the engine sub cage
    Was the best investment for my Grom

    I got some new forks coming in and I'll need bar risers for the preload adjusters to fit, I'm looking into new bars would these be too tall with the bar risers do you think?

    Where do you get the custom bar pad cover?

  • @Goferris
    @Goferris Před 6 lety +1

    With my Grom I had the Honda Mini bars with risers but I think I would have been better off with the XR50 bar.

    You talked about switching out the brake/clutch levers & I would really like to see a video when you do that! Pinched my pinky under the clutch lever yesterday, agh.

    My clamshells are right on that bend before the grip. Same bars.

    Hey Block, My gf and I run the same bars on our groms. I have horn and signal switch mounted under the crossbar pad and brake lever i bent down just a wee bit to tell a difference (I see this is the give-away bike). Would like to come over to Orlando and ride with ya guys sometime! Or come to tampa!

    • @BlockheadMoto
      @BlockheadMoto  Před 6 lety

      Will def have to come to Tampa sometime soon! Under the crossbar pad for those would be crazy, I wouldn't be able to get used to it, haha

  • @martymeatball4615
    @martymeatball4615 Před rokem

    Risers are like £20 universel risers i have then ive went from renthless that are same dementions as klx110 to cr50s for more hight just we bit guted for width wise lose abit on each side i like the wider bars but the key thing is pain in ass and the hight i would like more so hopefully i like the riding style of them just waiting on grips lol 😂

    Love those bars. I put KLX110 bars but too low. I put on Pro Taper Mini CR High bend but still too low. Is there room for a phone mount on the bar? I was trying to see in video but could not tell for sure. Thanks for the video.

    • @BlockheadMoto
      @BlockheadMoto  Před 6 lety +1

      I used the ram mount clutch adapter to mount my cell phone. Like the one here - amzn.to/2w9kBYQ

    BLOCKHEAD I'am 6 foot 2 do you think i can ride a Honda Grom comfortably or do you think I'am to tall for it??

    • @GasWorksISO
      @GasWorksISO Před 6 lety

      I’m 6’1” and I fit just fine. It’s actually quite comfortable.

      there's no such thing as being too big or too small to ride a bike :)

    what about the Protaper SE honda mini bars?

    • @BlockheadMoto
      @BlockheadMoto  Před 6 lety +3

      I've got those on the Giveaway Grom that we're giving away beginning of next month. They feel good! But a little low for my personal preference.

    • @Subi_doo
      @Subi_doo Před 5 lety +1

      BLOCKHEAD that’s why I’m giving the XR50 protapers a shot... got the minis on my Grom now but want to see if the taller Xr50 bars are better for wheelies than the Honda mini bars .

  • @schlumpf1115

    I found a 1995 vulcan 750 with only 12,000 miles on it for $1000. Is that a good deal? It will be my first bike.
