What handlebars are you using on your PIG? I am 5' 10", riding a 1994 XR600R with stock bars, ready to upgrade but didn't know what was working well for you.

I am 5'11" and currently have a set of Moose 7/8 "cr high" bend bars on my bike. I like the bend... No complaints there, but I can't run a scotts damper with the cross bar so I am looking to swap them for a pair of fat bars with a similar bend.

Pro Taper makes the "CR High" bend in the 1-1/8" fat bars. I use Pro Tapers in "Pastrana FMX" bend on top of a Scotts S.U.B. mount, because it was the tallest set up that I could find.

How tall are you?

I just put a set of Pro Taper Contours in the Pastrana FMX/ATV High Bend on my bike too. They fit me great, but I have rode only a few miles with them. I am 6'1"

not the best view, but all I have access to right now.

iI have 7/8 protaper cr-hi bend with the cross bar but will be upgrading to the protaper cr-hi fat bar to compliment my rox risers. Good sweep and height, i'm 6'-4''. Go to a cycle gear or something similar and hold a few different bars in your hands, that should help you make your decision.

Pro Taper Evo - CR high bends with 3" bar risers to fit Scott's sub-mount. I'm only about 5' 10" but I stand up a lot...

CR High bend (fat bar of course). Be aware however that CR High is not the same dimensions amongst all the different bar mfgs. Some are higher (Turner) than others (Pro Taper) even though they both say CR High.

Of all the bars I've used (Turner, Pro Taper Contour, Trail Tech, Easton, Longhorn...etc..) the Contour bars have proven to be the strongest and have not bent in some very hairy high speed crashes.

Here are Turner CR High. They are a great bang for the buck but after several high speed get offs they were bent to the point where you could actually see the distortion in the red anodizing from the bend.







Here are Trail Tech ATV High (about the same height as Turner) but the walls of the bar are not as thick as either the Turner or the Contour bars, thus I think they have a little bit more vibration in them. I've since filled them up with some silicone and now the resonance is about the same as the Contour and Easton bars. Since I still have these gold Trailtech bars, these are the ones I'm using on my XR6 project bike.



I currently have Easton bars on the KTM (those are TrailTech ATV High in the above pic. They're the same ones that are on the silver Cannondale.


Here are the Contour bars! The best.

6' 2", but I'm all torso with a 32" inseam, so the taller the better, for me.

My bars say "MSR Motion Bar" and "HON High".

The bike came with them and I've never felt a need to change anything about them.

I just put some Easton CR HIGH 1 1/8'' bars on my XRR. I only spent $40 bucks on them at Rocky mOuntain ATV.

I wish maybe I had got something with a little less sweep becasue i have them tilted foward a little more than i would have liked but I gained some height with the bars and the adapter mounts to accept the 1 1/8'' bars.

I can actualy stand and ride the thing now! I'm 6'-0'' for reference.
