Howdy.

I would like to change the seating position on my '07 T100, and I am not fussy about the look of the riser inserts.

Has anyone put "beach" bars on their T100?

(These ones : Flander's Beach Bars looking at 'K5')

Cheers
Fred

They look like they may have your hands behind you

They sure are expensive handlebars !

you'd have to run all new longer cables and brake hose.

Sweat is right, I used some flanders beach bars on a harley and had to use way longer everything. Cool thing about them is they will sit you up right, hands are wide and very comfortable. Bad thing is parking lot manuvers as you turn tight corners, think that the outside bar will swing away from you, and sometimes it can be a stretch! Nothing big just something to get used to.......... flanders also makes a reproduction of pan head bars I think they were called, almost as wide, narrower center and almost the same riding position, I used them on my wife's sporty when we had a bat wing faring on it. they may be a better choice for the bonnie as far as looks... I think I still have them if you'd like me to measure them.

I could use America cables etc.

Any other suggestions for bars that would have a slightly longer pull back?

Stock bars: 4" rise, 8" pull back, 5" center, 28" width.

Ideally, bars that were the same as stock with a 9" pull back would probably be perfect. The risers bring the bars 'up 1 1/2" and back 3/4" '

So...slightly higher bars might work as well.

Thougts? Ideas?
Thanks

look into that "flat tracker" bars. I think they are pretty close to that

Yep flat track bars is the trick. Have them on my 06.

Got the ones from Bellacorse. Can use stock cables. Can't use stock grips.

They look like they will do the trick and cheaper too 8-) ...why can't you use stock grips?

Thanks
