Been looking at getting a set of these for the KLR650, as at the Scrapheap rally and also in the tight stuff I notice I need some more height and the standard bar risers will bring the bars back with the angle of the steering head.
With these you can adjust the bars so they are the same distance as you were in the seat before just heigher in the bars.
Good idea.

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. It appears that I should have been a little more specific. I had the same bar raisers on my XR600 that I fitted all by myself and I was so happy with them :woohoo: , I got a set for the 650 as well. I clean forgot that it was TB that fitted them to my 650 and rerouted my cables. Sorry I didn’t mention that in my previous post. :blush:

Hope that clears things up. :whistle:

Baaaaaahahaha you goose :laugh: I love it thanks

Here is my set up for my bars, no bling factor just a cheap, practical way of raising your bars and making a bit more cockpit space. The bar risers were $60 or near abouts and the Renthal fat bars were about $150. I have crashed and dropped the bike too many times to even think about and they haven’t moved or bent at all.

Glad you didnt say you fitted them :laugh: :laugh: In a PM Mick mate said he was 6″2 so I reckon he will need higher, at least a high bend bar with those style adapters. I reckon the Pro Taper Windham/RM MID maybe high enough. Mike you can also see how I routed the throttle cables on Micks setup because they arent long enough the standard route

Bars are like tyres eh :laugh: One person loves one person hates. I have had success fitting and recommending the Pro Taper Windham/RM MID bars on both my bikes, Nickj’s Tenere, Crashes CRF, Dejay’s DR to name a few

BTW the damper wasnt recommend for Bling, it was recommended to lift the bars, he lives in WA so sand would be a factor, the damper makes a huge difference ask anyone thats got one. The bling factor is just an extra bonus

Bar risers here champion

If your coming on this ride make sure you and anyone you know going has read and keeps reading the first post on page one

If you think you are coming and aren’t on the list don’t it’s full, reading the first line on the first post on guess where? Yes the first page will tell you that! Any questions please ring me on 0419 421334

Why is it full? A few reasons, catering, ride limits, lead rider limits, only so much forest (don’t want head ons), camp area size, and because we have decided that 91 or 92 is enough!

G’day guys… I’m new to the Old Bulls and would appreciate some advice…

Welcome Mike, advice on an XR650 yeah baby love the things :woohoo:

And I’m coming over the Perth for the ride the first weekend in June…
I’ve got an XR 650R with two problems… one is that the bars are too low for me. What solutions have you used to raise your bars (new triple clamps that will fit CRF bar risers???)

Does it have a damper? Have you considered an under bar damper and a set of high bend bars (can’t remember of the top of me head what bend we use but can get that sorted) I recently used a set of bar raisers that I purchased from Adventure Moto here in Sydney that were bloody awesome, I took some pictures at the time and will be doing a write up about them as they are rippers. You could very successfully use them, they have all sorts of adjustment including backwards and forwards. I will getbthem posted up today if I can

The other problem is carbie related and I’m looking to replace the carbie. I’ve been researching the Mikuni Pumper Carb 40mm kit and some seem to love it others seem to hate it. Any first hand experience with it please let me know your thoughts. If you have a better suggestion I’m all ears as well.

I use at the standard carby it was setup originally by Nick Dole of Tekniks fame when he built my bike for GHR for the 2005 Australian Safari. It runs a HRC engine kit with head work custom exhaust blah blah blah and has seen 59 horses on the dyno so the carby does the job when jetted right. I run a 68s pilot jet (can get you the part number for that) and a 175 main. Air screw is 1 3/4 turns out I think can check. Fuel economy trail riding is ok around 110kms for 10 litres but when racing say at the Condo it has been known to use 1 litre for every 8.4 kms.

Thanks in advance for your help guys…
Mike

We did a quick pre run today of one loop, then I went back out and sorted a few tracks for a longer loop for the grade 3. 1inarow and Captain Furious were my judges for track selction. They were happy with the grade. There is some open fire trail, narrowish fire trail and some singles with a couple of hills to challenge the less exprienced.

Only a couple of pics on the one hill.

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
