There it was, parked, safe and secure, at a friend's place.
I went to pick it up, and notice my grips don't look right.
Neither do my bars.
Finally it dawned on me that my buddy and gf conspired to replace them with something a bit more comfy for me (and not bent) so my shoulders would hurt less.
So yup....they modded my bike. Dammit all.
pics?

This travesty will remain hidden.
I have it on good authority that aftermarket bars are hewn from the bones of the stillborn. There is Satans hand at play in this.

LF. I've found that after you do that you can sitting typing stupid shit all day and when she complains you can just yell, "Shut up and go make me a chicken pot pie!!" You certainly can't do that when you're just dating. ;D

I like how comfy it makes the bike.
If I had the old, bent Magura bars that caused shoulder pain handy-I'd reinstall 'em.
So no, I don't know what's good for me.
