Euro bar?
« on: August 09, 2012, 11:34:20 AM »
i'm in process of equipping Bevo with an S fairing.
Thinking S bars should be included in the fun and will probably help with master cylinder clearance.
This article has been helpful, http://w6rec.com/duane/bmw/lowbars.htm

Anyone have a favorite among the various choices?

I prefer the low bars, and you will definitely want to go that way if you do install the S type fairing.  I've had low bars on my R90 and Monte just finished a paint job on my new S fairing.  It's a very comfortable ride.  I'll take a few snaps and download so you can see what it looks like.

Another thing to consider is bar end mirrors.  They make a world of difference, positively so, especially with the S fairing.  -Mike
