RD 350 handle bar for Bullet 350 UCE?

[anandbj76]

Hi,

I have purchased Bullet 350 UCE a couple of weeks back. I am getting some back-ache since then. The pain is in the upper part of back. To be exact, the pain is on left side of the back - where the sholder ends.
I think the cause for this pain is the handle bar of the bullet. I think my hands are getting too much stretched for holding the handle bars. Please note that I am 5'4" tall. I have already got the stock handle bars lowered to certain extent for comfort, but I think that is not enough.

I have heard that RRD 350 like handle bars are best suited for bullets. Is that true? Will they help improve the driving / sitting posture?
Can they be fitted easily on the bullet? Will I need to buy new cables too for the handle bar? Or will the stock cables work?

I am based in Pune. Please guide on any specific shop that sells these handlebars.

Best regards,
Anand

I doubt that would help, since they are wider and straighter. So the issue is that you will have to reach further, and it will strain more.

I suggest the lightining 535 handlebar ( longer and wider ), but that would involve longer cables for clutch, accelerator etc.

Other thing i can suggest is get some padding on the seat, so that you sit slightly higher and forward.

Handle Bar

I agree in increasing the seat height rather than going for modifying the handle bar.

I had replaced stock handle bar of my thunderbird with RD 350 handle bar. RD handle bar suits Thunderbird ONLY FOR SHORT N CITY RIDING BUT NOT FOR HIGHWAY AND LONG DRIVES.

Anand, Try with Suzuki Shogun handle bar. It has a bit elongated handle compared to other bikes and gives a great comfort. I had it in my RE Electra for somedays and it gave me a very comfortable ride.

Electra Handlebar

Try the Electra Handlebar. I have Electra Handlebar on my STD and there is no back pain.

Be doubly sure you may not get original handle bar. My suggestion is to get it fabricated on a high quality steel. This can be done by any steel fabricator. I know some one who got it done in Mumbai.

Hey dude

I would like to change my Thunderbird handlebar to RD 350. I guess you have already done the same. Could you provide me with some reliable dealers in mumbai who sell good quality product.

Thanks
