Anyone changed the handlebars?

I would prefer the bars to be lower and further forward. I might try these bars and see how it feels. Would probably need to shorten brake lines and tidy up wiring, etc to make it look decent.

Hello I think I've seen something on this facebook page; https://fr-fr.facebook.com/groups/4367141670014011/posts/4966317660096406/?mibextid=6NoCDW
There is a lot of Europeans you customise there CE04, it's easier to have after market accessories, it's actually easier to order on Europeans site compare too order through my dealer here in Montréal.
Good luck

That’s really interesting. I find the stock bars are too high and have me leaning backwards all the time…

Post up a pic, when you’ve done the deed!

Getting there on the bar replacement but still a lot to do. Regular bar risers don't fit as somebody at BMW thought it'd be a good idea to not straddle the bar clamp bolts symmetrically and also not split the clamp halves in one plane. I'm going to have to do some machining but have it assembled using one bolt on each riser for now. I will get shorter brake lines and tidy up the wiring too. May also paint the bare alloy around the steering hub black. I think it looks great and it feels a lot better than the high stock bars.

Bar mods complete. Machined the risers, new brake lines fitted, steering hub painted and wiring tidied up.
