I bought a set of Mikes xs1 replica bars for my xs1b then decided I liked the old corroded ones better! Rolling Eyes

If you're restoring a 70-73 these are the right bars. He sells them for $40, I'll give em to you for $20.

I wanted to point out that even if you're not restoring an early bike these will work for you and are nicer bars than the stock ones on the later bikes. I think they're very similar in shape to the bars on a standard but these have welded in bar end weights to reduce vibration transfer to your hands.

Yeah those pics on mikes site don't tell you much. I just tried to take a couple, it's hard with my camera to get a shot of them sitting up the way the would on the bike because I can't get far enough away while holding them. Anyways they're brand new in the same bag they came in, I never mounted them on the bike. I don't really need $20 I just hate to see them go to waste on a shelf in the garage.
