Challenger Bars
« on: October 02, 2014, 11:54 AM »
Guys,

I have been riding the Challenger with Challenger bars and even used the old trick of putting a TNT clamp on the stem but, I am still finding the bars a little low.

Are there any 'taller' bars that I could use, era correct '93, to replace these with  ???

Thanks  :)

Can't remember the rise off hand of Challenger bars Terry, but there's Powerlite 2-piece that I think are tallerer, or if you want to go for a 'forklifter' look Fred-Z's or Bully bars may have a better rise for you fella.

They are cool bars but the Challenger is a race bike and I think the ladders would spoil it  :-\
