I bought some Renthal Banshee bars to use on my Raptor, but I have a problem. It seems that the bars are much wider than the stock ones and they limit how far you can turn the bars before they hit the plastic.

Does anyone else have this problem?

Even a simple yes or no will do at this point.

Yes, but you already knew that. Mine only rub on the one side and at the very end. They do not limit the turning radius of the bar. I never even noticed till you mentioned it.

I normally jump a little higher, but the take off was limited on that one. I couldn't get up enough speed.

I bought the Renthal 400EX Bend bars for my Raptor. I think the 400 EX geometry is a lot closer to the Raptor than the Banshee.

Bash, what difference in power do you notice with the baffle removed and rejet? How loud is it compared to aftermarket exhaust systems?

If you are talking about my pic's. I never wear a helmet. I guess I should, but you know how it is. A rag on my head will have to do.
