Round bar GOT TI?
Bought this piece of 3/4" solid Titanium rod stock last year, but never got around to bending it. I wasnt sure if I was even going to be able to bend it, it was hard as a ************ but it did get bent.....

Really missed the Ti sparks from my old Ti plate when I had a 12 bar....I dunno if Im the first but I havent seen anyone rocking Ti round bars...

Should be at least double if not more.....I did some grinding on it on one end and I was holding it to the grinder pushing hard, and it was barely wearing down at all....Its harder then steel thats for sure, how much harder Im not sure...

Re: Round bar GOT TI?

A Ti round bar would last FOREVER!!

But it looks like it needs to be a tighter bend from the 1st pic no

That is worth some big bucks. We have a serious Ti. shortage going on right now. BTW. Ti. is one of the strongest resorces on the planet.

Bad ***, do all round bars fit on the 636 that good. I figured I would ask because I want to rock my brake light w/bar. Just bought a SI, will I be able to keep my brake light? Anybody .
