Motopv Posted August 3, 2021 Report Share Posted August 3, 2021 In hopes someone may know. I am looking to order a set of Renthal 673 bars for my '21 evo 300. Has anyone gone from stock to these? Looking to get maybe 1/2 in rise. Not excited about changing geometry but, I have wrist and back problems going back to ama wera and afm roadracing days. Back is big challenge as i have bone to bone and various other issues. Well enough of that... I was hoping to find the stock dimensions on line of the OEM bars but unable and i am not near the bike for a few days. Thanks in advance if anyone can help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbofurball Posted August 4, 2021 Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 I'd recommend using some bar risers to try on different heights and find what's comfortable. My Cota has 1" risers, my TY about 3/4" on a custom top clamp, and my Sherco is stock (plus my enduro bike is higher than stock with risers, and none of my road bikes have stock bars on them because I'm not built like an average Asian person), it really depends on whats comfy for you.

Motopv Posted August 4, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2021 Hi and thank you for the input, yes initial thought but the bar mount on the beta is not the norm. its a hinged clamp, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fourex Posted August 5, 2021 Report Share Posted August 5, 2021 (edited) Renthal do a 829 bar which is roughly 15mm taller than the 673, but they can be hard to source. https://www.renthal.com/moto/trials-110-1 S3 do a nice adjustable bar clamp that works well with the 673, gives a 13mm lift. https://shop-s3.com/gb/home/51-adjustable-handlebar-clamps-s3.html Edited August 5, 2021 by fourex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fourex Posted August 7, 2021 Report Share Posted August 7, 2021 (edited) Yes, I see your problem, those S3 adjustable clamps I suggested are of no use. If your bars are Reikon "9003" then they have a height of 110mm, Renthal 673 are 100mm, Renthal 829 are 115mm but there's so much more to how they get to that end height, finding the right handlebar for oneself can be a costly exercise. Jitsie have a few options in their fatbar range if that's of any help........... Edited August 7, 2021 by fourex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greychapel Posted August 7, 2021 Report Share Posted August 7, 2021 You could try the universal bar risers off flea bay, they clamp into the existing mounts and then the bars clamp on top, the have removable inserts to allow for normal or fat bars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fourex Posted August 7, 2021 Report Share Posted August 7, 2021 Bar risers are not an option, look at the pics he's put up of the Beta hinged clamp which is integral of the top triple clamp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the current clamps are bolted to the top yoke, an option would be to ditch them and replace with conventional bolt on clamps. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Motorcycle-HandleBar-Bar-Riser-Mount-Clamp-Adaptor-22-28mm-Dirt-Pit-Bike-ATV/352639832434?hash=item521af8d172:g:QW8AAOSwWw9coci6&pageci=eb8ea2b3-582b-4a03-8099-3c409f7ec25e&redirect=mobile Edited August 7, 2021 by b40rt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trial here is super rare. Hope to see it grow. There must be many like me with body beat up from roadracing and mx. I am new to this and hooked. by the way after 2 months maybe 4 or 5 liters run through bike I practice balance in my garage few minutes per day, it’s bit more difficult as surface slick concrete. But motor off it’s few to maybe 5 seconds motor running 10 to best of around 30 seconds. I never thought this would be that difficult 🙈😂 Any tips greatly appreciated! cheers Edited August 7, 2021 by Motopv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would work with the hinged clamp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
