most stock bars are 7/8 if you go with a set of fatboy bars there 1 and 1/8 i beleive so do your homework before you buy a new set of bars.

v-max, wow really? so if I go with fatboy bars for my gade it would actually be thicker then oem bars? 7/8" versus 1 1/8" thickness wall right? got a site for it? I want to take a look into this.

Lets say if you do up a set up like mine, see my thread in genral. and i bought 1 and 1/8 bars, i had to by adapers to fit my riser. but imo well worth it. they go back to 7/8 for your controls though.

oh so are they teh bars u see on dowhill and freeride pedal bikes? they are very thick where they clamp on but becoen smaller to teh standard size where u hold on to? i know my mtn biek is liek thsi but i kinda thought the 1 1/8 bars were thicker walls but slighty bigger in size just not quite 1 1/8 wide
