Putting Renthal bars on my KLX250S
New member to the forum!
I just got Renthal bars for my 2009 KLX250S and am wondering what others are doing with the throttle control and signal control. Both controls have a small peg that fits into a hole in the stock bars. Are people drilling a hole in their new bars or are they removing the pegs. If they are removed will the controls stay in place, especially the throttle?

So you don't have trouble with the controls turning on the bars or the throttle sliding off the end of the bars? The plastic control housings don't seem to clamp tightly to the bars.

I like mine to not bite in to much. I keep the screws snug, not locked in. That way when I biff, it lets stuff rotate a bit on the bars, instead of breaking.

Thanks everyone for the tips. Sounds like the thing to do is remove the nubs. I'd rather do that than drill into my new bars.
It's great seeing and hearing what others are doing to their KLX. I've got lots of projects in mind for my bike during our winter down time.
