insane.
For bars. I think you should get the S&M Slam XLT's. Those look sick. I wanna get a pair of them.

haha did you look at the solids? (second link)
and what about the T-1's? cause ive never seen those before, but theyre the right measurements and theyre cheaper than almost every other pair of bars that ive seen in that size.
I would just reccomend Slam's.
Don't they have a warranty?

i dont know. but the T-1's are kinda cheap. and ive Dans doesnt have T-1's that big. and i havent seen em that big anywhere else either.
I hate T1. My friend has some parts by them.
I wouldn't reccomend getting them but if you like them get them.

well they look alright. and so long as theyre the right size, then bars are generally bars. and these are the right size for cheaper than like anything on dans.
Then go for them. Dan's Comp you can get free shipping, so it may be a better price for the slams.

The Solid bars are monsterous. They're freakin' huge. But bars are pretty much bars except for Eastern. And aluminum ones. I like Shadow bars.

i think i wanna get the T-1's. and i just saw the solids and thought that they looked insane. theres no reason that anyone needs bars that big, but i thought it would be funny.

Maybe it wasn't a T1, did he buy it second hand?

Slams aren't the only bars out there. They may be the best, but not the only.
Yeah. But i like them and would reccomend them for the kind of bars he want's.

i know a few dudes who run slams. i actually just met one dude today. he likes em and says that theyre pretty nice. i still wanna try some different bars though.
Yeah. Like 75% of people i see that have bikes that aren't stock have slams lol.

Street rider
07-28-08, 10:32 AM

Scooter bars.... as in just a stick? like mtb bars
Street rider
07-28-08, 03:59 PM

07-28-08, 04:10 PM
Yea but there is a reason why they don't have them. It would break in a half a second.
I think i am going to order some slam xlt's soon. I hate civilians therre so small!
