Buckhor Handlebars

[terrylee2u]

Is there somone that makes the bars in 7/8''? My stock bars seem to be a bad angle for my hands (nerve problems ie carpletunnel). I have moved them up and down but nothing helps the wrist angle. The buckhorns seem to have a better curvature for me...

Not exactly buckhorns from what I can see, but might be close to what you're looking for, and they're 7/8":

Terry, I was thinking on trying to find a stock set of G bars for mine. I commute about 65 miles round trip and I can vouch for the numbness.


So if anyone has a mint set of stock G bars on here, let me know.

Dennis Kirk has a lot. You may want to gheck for a set of T or E bars on Ebay...They're both flatter.

yeah I've looked through Dennis Kirk.. I want something like the buckhorn.. I still want a pull back bar.. just need the ends to come down and out a little bit...

I fixed the problem.. Highbars,not buckhorns but close and alot more comfortable! And a set of goldwing grips rounded off the package!!
This allowed me to keep with the original styling of the bike, so I'm happy!

Thanks for the follow up.... hmm you didn't happen to do a side by side comparo (picture) when you had both bars off did you?

I was looking into 77 cb750SS bars. My buddies bike bars look pretty tight but not as close to the original as what yours look to be.

The new bars are pretty much the same height but they bend out more and are a little wider and curl down and out at the grips, the feel is alot more natural positioning of your hands. I didn't keep the original bars, I found out that one side was actually bent inwards just a little bit on the left side. They (new bars) fit the bike really well and didn't require any new cables.
P.S. From the last bend to the end of the bars was a little longer than stock too. Give a little more room to spread out things or add a throttle lock if a person wanted one without crowding.
