More handlebar talk - Samurider Type 2 replacements

[jedd_imp]

I should first start this question with why. I was on the CA-2 yesterday about 10 miles west of Wrightwood enjoying my 5K rpm bliss when I crested a hill and in the middle of the road was a boulder about the size of a small bowling ball. Bucked me right off and I slid and slid and then tumbled and slid. Thank goodness for armor and gear cause I'm fine and miraculously the CB sustained minor damage (wife- major damage but that's another thread...) however,my Samurider Type 2 bars are all bent up and Sumurider is out of stock of these.

I recall a few of you have had success with other Honda bars etc. My criteria is I want the lower height of the Type 2 bars and that I can install the factory weights.

Any suggestions on other bars that I can substitute?

If you require that the bar have the holes already prepunched (for locking the switchgear collars in place), then i think the honda brand is the only one with them

i could be wrong, but the aftermarket bars will NOT have those two holes, so drilling them in yourself, is that an option?
