on my kx250 im running 30 with bark busters. on my husky im running 29.75.
theres still some tight stuff i have to squeeze through but for the most part 30 works just fine.

The easiest way to find what width bars you should run is easy.....well sort of unless your old, fat and out of shape like me.
Its all about finding where
your body is the most efficient
.
This is easiest done with 2 people. Do 10-20 push ups (if you can) at the easiest hand spread.....now measure from the inside of your fingers on one hand to the inside of the other. (not thumbs) This is where the inside edge of your grips should be.....add the lengths of both grips to this number and ......whalla....... that is your most efficient body bar width.

I really like the fat bars better. they allow alot more room for an over the bar steering dampener. but if your wondering where to find the actual measurements of all these bars rockymountainatv.com has a good sizing chart.
