I had FF on my bike with the upper chopped just above the mirror mounts so the DB bars wouldn't hit.....I actually felt more comfortable that way than the SF set-up I have now. I'm gonna try to get a full set of aftermarket plastics and still debating on whether or not I'm gonna be cutting an aftermarket upper and running it with DB bars, or staying SF'ed. I know every DB hater is gonna ultra flame the upper with DB bars, but it feels perfect when rockin highway and rollin longer endoes!

I got the LSL conversion. The bars don't look at solid as actual dirtbike bars but they haven't given me any problems yet in terms of when i come down hard from wheelies. If you get actual dirtbike bars, they are made to withstand the forces that come from landing crazy jumps. I personally think I have way better control with these bars on my gixxer.

if you do go for DB bars on the f4i go for the Renthal twin wall model...its special made in three parts guaranteed unbrakeable with a 28mm wide bar.... In europe or at least in switz. and france if they brake we send em back for replacement...
