Title: Handlebar compatibility
Post by: hackers2r on September 14, 2010, 04:45:18 PM
Have a buyer for my handlebars. (OEM S2R 800) He has an S2R Dark with OEM bars.  Will there be any trouble swapping them?  Thanks.

620, 695, S2R800Dark = Cheap Steel Bar
S2R800, S2R1K, S4R = Magura Tapered Aluminum Bar

So would that require different clamps?

The triple clamps are different.  The risers do not come off on the steel bar triple.

adaptor needed:
Rizoma Conical Handlebar Adapter AZ405B  $112.00
MSRP: $134

The Pro Taper Universal 1/18" HandleBar Adapter Kit (02-2821) will work too for around $40:

The good folks at Hattar Motorsports in San Rafeal, CA were able to order these for me and confirm that they'd do the trick.

Not good looking, but for $40, that's a good deal compare to the Rizomas.

Do check the bolt spacing too.

Finally got around to installing the aluminum bars on the S2R Dark using the The Pro-Taper adapter I was raving about a few months ago.  Totally didn't fit.

Yeah ducati uses a really wide bolt spacing - dirt bike adapters generally won't work.
