pschrauber Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 (edited) Original the handle bar was black: Anyway some riders painted their handle bar white or mounted alloy bars mostly coated (anodised) in silver or gold back then when I remember right.

bondy Posted March 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 hi patrick yes i thought so think the white would look good but its how long the paint would stay on. as if i have them powder coated that will give me problems. may just leave the silver ones on. best regards bondy.

pschrauber Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 The color stays on the handle bar very long in my experience, here at least a 20 year old yellow painted handle bar ... : Some scratches will occur but what do you expect it's a dirt bike.

pigbog Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 My 198b still has it's original black bars. It's a satin black finish and looks to me like a powder coat which is quite durable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
