Default new bars?

hey my dad wrecked my (well not quite mine, he bought it, i ride it 97% of the time kinda thing) and he was going off this huge dune jump and got massive air for and old man and landed awkward and rolled the Z. after assesing my dads injurys, (just banged up a little amazingly, I have it on tape wicked crash) he bent the handlebars badly. The left side is higher that the right by like 4 inches. I was wondering what kind of new handlebars would be the best and do I need to by a different clamp? and what is the best buy? Also I don't want to change the position too much-I like the stock position...plaease help![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

If you get Fat bars you will need new clamps. Measure you bars and get the same Diameter and you won't. You can get your old grips off with a heat gun or just buy new ones. Use a heat gun to heat the bars up, once they are hot put glue on the grips so it spreads as you slide them on.

Check out Azonics through rockymountain> You won't be dissapointed. They're built like Protaper and Renthal in one. They're $90, and get the trail tech big bar clamp for $57, and I seriously doubt you'll ever need to buy another set of bars. I got mine with the YZ bend I believe, and they sit pretty close to stock.

How do you like your GPS? What kind did you get? I'm in the market and want to know what's out there and options but like everything don't want to spend an arm and a leg.

I use renthal CR High bend and love them. I had answer CR low bend and don't recomend them because they make you feel like your sitting high.

I would like to see the video.

I just bought Trailtech Fatbars (taper to 7/8" at ends to fit controls), billet dashboard, and computer. Should be here by Monday. I got them in the medium bend.

Here's the dashboard:
