Hey guys i have a '09 can am renegade 500. i had a little incident yesterday while going up hill, i hit a rut at an angle at a high speed rolled the quad and it hit a solid tree branch during the roll. the final outcome was a bent handlebar. the quad handled the whole thing very well and has no other damage other then the handlebar.

i was looking for some advice about changing the handlebar. is there a good aftermarket handle bar i should steer to or should i just get another stock bar? is it an easy change or something more complex?

your help is appreciated.

 

On my DS650, I put Protaper SE's on and they made a big difference. They were very close to the factory bend but feel more stable. No vibration at all. For the Renegade, you might want to go with the Evo or Contour. They are made real well and can be bent back if you roll again.

 

I ordered the contour this morning! Is there enough room for all the necessities like hand guards and winch control??

 

Should be. I had plenty of room. For my hand guards, I had to buy a kit for mounting the bar at the end of the handlebars. The contour bar ends will be more narrow than the stock bars.

These are the ones I got. Worked great.
