Product Overview
POSH "TOURING" HANDLEBAR, STEEL - CHROMED, 040162.
The POSH W650 Touring bar is a W650 specific bar, it made to be a bolt on option with 25.4mm (1") clamp area, then steps down to 22.2mm (7/8") at the controls ends (AKA - W650 spec). This handlebar is a popular option for both customizers and those looking to improve their position on the bike. Bars are predrilled so fit up of your switches is easily done without the need to drill etc. Simply swap over your existing switch blocks, throttle etc. Now available in a chromed finish, or black (see our listing for black separately).
If changing from an older model with high bars (AKA US bar) - you will need shorter cables for clutch, throttle and brake. Some owners re-use the high bar cables, but you will have cable overhang. If you need low bar cables, we stock low bar cables and brake lines to suit. Ask for details or search our cable section and see below for brake line part number.

ATTENTION:
See image examples above for specs and sizing. Please note a few images (on bike) are of the W800 version (22.2mm version). The W800 touring bar is the same bend and spec, however the W650 is 25.4mm (1") at the clamp area with 22.2mm at the grip section, so these bars are for W650 direct bolt on. Images above fitted on the W800 are for an installed example only, however bend is the same.
NOTE:
1. Bars are made for the W650. They do not fit the W400 or W800 (see our 22.2mm bar range for W400/W800)
2. These bars fit with W650 "low" bar type cables. If your bike has factory high bars, *we suggest swapping the cable to the low bar spec.
3. For the Brake line, we stock Daytona High Spec "stainless mesh lines" in the low bar length (850mm D spec), see the brake line section for the compatibility list or search part number 60595.
