Right handlebar
Bike was put down on the right at a track day, helping a friend fix it up. He remembers that this is some sort of eBay clipon deal. It measures 7/8 in diameter and just over 12" long. We do not believe it is stock.
Anyone know where we can get a replacement? I heated/rebent it back pretty straight but neither of us are sure of how we feel about that being safe. |

Looks fine to me. I had a bent bar that a friend straightened good as new. I rode that bike thousands of miles without a problem before I sold it.

Took it apart again today, to install new passenger side throttle, kill switch, start. It's still anything but straight.
Any ideas on where we can get another or will used OEM work? It has plastics at both ends like OEM but unlike most aftermarkets. Any suggestions on aftermarket grips while I'm at it? |

No clue on the bar, OEM's are one piece so will not work for you. And Dury makes nice grips that are not pricey at all.

Why has nobody told him that any 7/8th replacement bar will fit? Just buy a woodcraft replacement bar.

Also - to be clear a straightened bar is just fine. The only thing you have to be concerned about is the throttle cables blinding. If you can twist the throttle, let go, and it snaps back then you are good.
If it doesn't snap back first make sure the rubber grip itself is not touching the bar and causing a slow return.
