keychange Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 My Cota 247 has had quite a few bar bending spills - and now even a light fall results in a bend so I I think they are past their use by date. Can I get some suggestions on replacements. I do like the original wide bars they are approx 820 mm (32 inches) and I would prefer something without the cross bar support so as to keep the original look.

mrb505 Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 Andrew KT250 bars from fred&debs NZ are a good quality old fashioned bend and reasonably priced $45?+post ( thanks David Lahey for originally suggesting them) they are the bars on my 325 Sherpa that you have ridden, can't measure them at the moment as I'm back in Wilcannia but will when if I get back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reginald Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 What rise feetupfun? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feetupfun Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 What rise feetupfun? About an inch less than the ones on my M49. You can measure them in the time-honoured Reginald way if you want. There is a new set not fitted to anything yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
