handle bars on the xtx

[rednytromtx]

Rolled my sled and thrashed my bars on my 2013 xtx. im gonna order the oft steering relocate. 1) are my grips reuseable? 2) how much of a riser can i run with stock cables and oft... 2"? if i purchase a freeride style bar i need a riser block but if i purchase a mountain riser style bar i just need to get the correct rise on them. any suggestions would be great.

I've never had good luck trying to reuse the grips, it seems like I always end up destroying them trying to get them off.
With the stock bars you can use the OFT relocator and a 2" riser no problem.

I used this kit SMA-HOTGP-HK-00. Hotter than stock and the knurling on the rubber is great.

i figured why buy stock bars,hand grips a pivot adapter and riser block when i can go this route

edit: gonna fab up new brackets for the hand guards out of steel because those only lasted 13 miles before i broke one
