Default new handlebars and brush guards

Ended up a little bent out of shape today and now I need this stuff. What are you guys, and gals, using?

I'm looking for more rise but the same shape as stock. For the guards, I want something really sturdy with a bar.

Any suggestions?

Havent looked at handlebars yet but I purchased Tusk D-Flex hand guards and have been very happy with them. Very sturdy aluminum bars and with the hand covers, they'll keep you covered from the mud and cold for well under the cost of the other brands.

I've got Moose handguards (bars & shields), and I like them very much. I will second Dirtsurfer, though, that you usually can't go wrong with Tusk products. I didn't have any experience with Tusk stuff when I got my handguards or I probably would have gone with them.

i like my Factory 909 bars , I have the "Team Bend" and got them new off ebay for $30. they go for $60-70 in catalogs.
also i run the moose aluminum guards with the optional plastic shields, work great.

If it's handlebars you want, here's a good spot to start.

I just ordered a set of "Raptor" bars for my KLX250.

These are the ones, I do believe, that match up with the ones BMWHD put on his KLX awhile back. Higher, but you don't need to change out the cables.

Hang tight, they should be in this week.

They worked well with the stock levers once i moved them in a quarter inch or so. Although they will not fit in the position the dealer attaches them, its easy to place them into position without the expense of buying shorter ones.

I tried a while ago to send in pics from a camera phone and got schooled by the site (you know the drill, only x's come up and it shows as blank to the rest of the group....)...NOOOB!!!!

I will take some pics of the Dual Star mirros I have and the handle bars with a digital camera and see if that is easier since I can get them saved as a JPEG which seems to work better from what I have read.
