Nice bike mate... If you get your feet caught, start streching your legs some more... Those bars are close to flat... Try it on my CR250 with the Renthal MX bars on... I'm lucky if I can get my feet near the bars over a good gap...

do u freestylers prefer normal bars like renthals or like tag style ones like globe has on his bike tag style would be easier for like bar hops and stuff wouldnt they?:D

For FMX TAG has to be the go as you don't have a cross brace to get caught on... MX bars like Renthal are designed to be less "upright" and more at an angle where your body weight is toward the back of the bike...

Not sure what sort of TAG's he's got on the bike but I agree with McNorman.. They are very wide... Look like the bars on my Harley..Lol

if youre just gonna start out doing barhops you might want to lower your bar pad a bit and secure your throttle cable close to the bar. But you're pretty much fine with what youve got. I do suggest the throttle cable securing cuz once I pulled it out doing a saranwrap and my foot got stuck up there, then when i landed it was stuck on the gas, I almost ran into wall!

yeah thats a mad bike man... i also got a qyestion to do with getting caught up... i have just normal renthal bars the ones with the cross bar. will that limit the shit i can do like trick wise?

yer that will limit what you can do cause with tapered you can fit ya feet through easier and with mx bars you got the cross bar to worry bout
