High-quality part brands? - SV650.org

01-01-13, 03:28 PM

I'm looking for some clip-ons, handlebars and bar-end mirrors for my XJR amongst other bits. Of course there are milbazillions of different parts which all look the same from different countries or companies for completely different prices. "You get what you pay for" only works to a partial extent here, because I could be paying way more for an identical product for this attitude.

Which brands are reputable? Lemme have 'em all so I can look around. So far I've got Rizoma, Renthal, Biltwell, and any bike manufacturers (Yamaha, Triumph). A brand that's cheap but very good will be very, very much appreciated!

Oberon, they do some lovely stuff.
I have their bar end mirrors on my naked K8.

Gillies clip ons are well made. I've got the Vario bars, multi adjustable & different height adapters
