Just wondering what bars you guys are running on your raptor. I am looking for something that bends up quick but will also lower the bar height.

I went with Renthal race bend bars. I like them better than stock.

They just barely hit the plastic in a full **** turn. They seem pretty low to me but I don't know a number to give you. However I am thinking about getting some T-2's so I can use thi cool fat bar adapter at billetware.com, same bend though.

I have the Tag tapered bars in CR high bend. They clear just fine even fully cocked and are alot lower than stock, maybe too low for trailriding casually., but I guarantee they'll keep you in a good attack stance for racing. I also use the renthal grips with the little dimples(for watercraft and ATV's) in medium compound, and they work better than anything else I've tried. I think no matter what bend you buy, you'll like them better than stock. I think yamaha tries to find the worst possible bend to use just so we replace them before we bend them and see how cheap they really are!
