Not really for sale, but here it is. I'm just looking to swap the bars out for some of the -7 degree bars. I've been told that the bars are interchangeable, but I guess we could do the whole assembly, its just as easy.

Anyone?

Cool, keep me posted. Not sure what you ride, but I should point out that mine are for an XB. Not sure if the bars themselves are interchangeable between kits on XBs and tubers...

I like the bars so much that I'll never sell them. I'm only looking to trade for the -7 degree bars because I want something to bring my body into the bike a little tighter. Otherwise, they are fantastic bars and are leaps and bounds better than the stock Lightning bars.

Shoot...mine are for a tuber.I know the plates differ in shape/size, but do the channels that are cut into the bars differ? I dont know. Never seen xb x-roads bars before.

1324,

I've got a set for a tuber...if they'll work for you let me know.

I might be interested in your stock bars if you still have them.

let me know,
Carl

Can anyone confirm that the bars will swap?
Swapping pics & measurements is just a pain in the a$$.

Mine are 7 degree down x-roads for TUBER(m2)
His are 0 degree x-roads for XB

Thanks in advance.

If we can figure this out that would be great. Otherwise, as soon as I get back in town on Friday, I can measure these up to get close. I can't even find a website for these bars...anyone have that? I'd contact the manufacturer if I could.

Nick-worst case scenario- we can measure and compare the digits. Ill post it up in knowledge vault, though. Were sure to get a knowledgeable answer there (Court?!)

I sent you an email, but I'll post it here as well. I contacted Al at American Sport Bike about this and his response is as follows:

The -7 bars are the same on X1, S1, and XB bars. They are different on M2
bars, which are longer.

The 0 degree bars have the same tongue and groove and the same bolt pattern
as the others. But they are .7" shorter per side. On a tuber, this very
likely results in the switch pods hitting the tank at full lock.
