Fitting Renthals

Is anybody aware of replacement risers that will enable the fitment of standard 22mm renthals to the MT09?

I really don't get this fatter in the middle thing that Yam went for on the MT with the standard bars.

I don't like the off centre dash much either, but kinda stuck with that I guess because of the ignition switch position.

mwahhs.

I take it you're changing your bars after your low side?

No idea sorry, I like both and wouldn't change them...

Have you got any good engineering workshops nearby you could ask ?

Just buy and fit rental fatbars and they will go straight on with no reason to change the risers!!!

Hmmm interestings, and all the furniture fits as it does on the standard bars?

My bars didn't get bent in my little lowside luckily, I just like renthals, I spent many happy years with them on my trials bikes, used to be quite good many years ago, made expert status but that's another story, never stopped me lowsiding.

Yeh, simple as peas. I've fitted rental fat bars to quite a few bikes and its my next mod for my MT.

They are wider in the middle like the standard bars and then taper down to allow the fitment of switch gear etc.

The only issue I have ever had was the small pips on the inside of the switch gear that locate in a small hole on most standard bars to avoid them moving, so you would have to drill out two holes in your rental bars or cut the pips off.

I will let you know how it goes when I get and fit mine if you wanna be sure all is well.

I've never had renthals, what's the attraction?

I just want black bars and renthal is a name I trust

Hmmm,, i love my bars , they look classy ! All my other nails .. bikes.. had cheapo looking chrome. Renthals .. cool , but reminds me of my trail/ enduro days, i would lovingly fit a shiny new pair ,then hurtle into the nearest hedge/wall/fence/sheep all of the above , and bend the buggers ! Very traumatic experience for a man with my wallet .

rental fat bars fitted.


As title, my Rental black fat bars are now on.
They feel and look ace IMO, I also fit some Rental trials grips an put on the standard r/h mirror as I lost the one mounted on the standard bartend. Street rally seat next and it is going to feel proper supermoto!!!!

Thoughts?

Are these an SX bend?I was looking for the lowest rise and least back-sweep and it seems SX bends fulfil those specs .

Hi Paul,
I don't know what bend they are, I just compared them to a MT in the shop and they just looked right!

Cheers daps!!!

Is the rental bar wider than the stock bar? Is so how much wider. Thanks

Looks great dude. Was thinking of those or pro tapers myself.
