My bike’s bars are bent from a car hitting me from the side. I was hoping I could just bend them back as it is only about 1cm out. But you make a good point in that it may be weakened. Better to save up and replace them. Thank you for an amazing video.

Firstly im Sorry to hear that, i hope the bike was parked and you weren't riding it at the time... You can bend a bar back if its a tiny amount and it's steel.. but cast or tempered alloy will be harder to bend back and almost certainly weakened... good luck with it my friend and i hope you can get it fixed. !

@@Moonfleet41 thank you. Nope. I was on the bike. A lady passed me and then swerved in while she was still alongside me. Hit me off the bike. My left leg went in between the frame and the chain and sprocket. Broke both bones in my lower left leg. Spent 4 months in a full leg cast and now two months after having the cast removed I can take a few steps without crutches. Took the bike for a ride today for the first time in over 6 months and that’s when I noticed the bar is bent. Other damage on the bike is mirror and brake lever and some scratches as I was under the bike. It’s a Honda cbx 250 twister. Don’t know if it is a steel handle bar.

Oh my goodness, that sounds nasty, and im glad to hear that you're on the mend now my Broer, it's amazing how easy a simple nudge on the road can lead to a nasty injury. And it's good to hear you are back on the bike again and making progress.. With the bar, just tough it with a magnet, it it's steel it will stick, alloy wont.. but of course, if you can afford a new bar eventually that would be the best solution..

So much so that I had difficulty in riding the thing 2 miles home. The following morning I had a look and the bars are fitted to the top yoke through a set of 4 rubber bushes. I took them all off and the bolts going through the yokes were perfectly straight and when i put them pack on and nipped everything back up it's all aligned again perfectly now.

After watching your video, I decided to invest the time and money in correcting this safety issue. I'm delighted to share, when I loosened the four bolts holding the handlebars inside mount/clamp, I could see the bars just twisted themselves, now free of torsion, and the bars are restored to their original alignment, and if there is a bend, it's MMs instead of CMs. 👍🍻

@@Moonfleet41 Hi Del, Go the bike back last week and everything seems to be straight and it doesn't want to ride sideways. There was one thing that the mechanic was wondering about and that was that after the crash the right bar weight didn't fit the throttle grip properly. I had forgotten but because of one of your videos (I can't remeber now which one) I backed off the fasteners on the switch-gear/lever assemblies on the bike slightly so that if it ever went on its side they would move rather than break. This is exactly what happened and although the bike hit the ground with enough force to rip the foot board assembly clean off, the bars are still straight and all they needed was a new brake lever. Cheers mate, that saved me a good few quid there (and that's from an Aberdonian, so it's a BIG deal :D )

Contrary to what you said about throwing them away, I did tweek them in a clamp with a pipe inside the bar end and reinstall. They have been on the bike for a year now with no perceived problems, and yes I have checked them numerous times. Im not refuting your word, just saying I took a chance that hopefully will pay off.

Checked mine after watching this video as my bike always had the ever so slightest head clock when riding that I assumed was due to the road crown even though I had dropped it once, pulled the bars off and what do you know they're less than a milimeter bent out of whack to the inside in the up bend on the left. Granted these are aluminium aftermarket renthal bars so I'm not too worried about their structural integrity as aluminium bends quite easily in comparison to steel so I presume they're probably more than fine to ride with but it's good to know if I ever get tired of their fit or look I've got an extra reason to replace them.
@Moonfleet414 жыл бұрын
Just a thought mate, if you take the trouble to try and find the old video that was online years ago of Duggy Lampkin riding his trials bike around the Renthal factory and offices where inbetween, they showed the manufacturing processes in clips, and one of the clips... was showing them 'tempering' the bars, they flex them almost 3" out of line and spring back, so be aware that they don't bend like regular aluminium, and if you try to bend them back it's just possible you could be weakening them, you'd certainly have to bend them a long way past where they are to make any adjustment stay put... they're cheap enough mate, just get some new ones.

Wasn't sure how to check or do this, and I was in for an MOT, so I asked htem to do it. Bike came bike and they said they'd aligned it all - I immediately hopped on and thought, "It's the same!" So I just lived with it temporarily because I was in for a maintainence job later on. So I asked them to do it again... same story... so now I head outside to do it myself! Thank you for the knowledge! Only issue is I have no centre stand on a Triumph Boneville America (not the lightest bike) so is it okay to loosen the headstock clamps with it on the side stand, and then pick it up, straighten it, put it back down and re-tighten?

Yes you can, if you place the bike on the sidestand and then loosen everything below the top pinch bolts you then can do the plunging alignment straddled across the bike, but you must do up those fasteners in sequence with the bike upright, if you allow it to go back to the sidestand you'll throw out the alignment again! Good luck with it mate, hope you get it sussed.

Hi mate, what Jediknight129 said is correct, take both clip ons off and strip them naked, just like you would a single handlebar, then lay them on a flat surface, side by side, and you're looking for symmetry between them... they should be a perfect, symmetrical mirror image of each other... whichever side you suspect has been bent, pick it up and cast an eye along it's length, like a gun sight, and you should be able to see any kink or bend... it can often be close to the point it goes in to the clamp with the clamp acting as a fulcrum, you may need to undo the actual bar section of the clip on and remove it from the clamp, so it's actually then a naked piece of bar, then you'll clearly be able to see any bend... good luck with it mate, hope you can get it sorted.

Always know when bars are the slightest tiny bit out, many dispute it until they do all the checks, then say "you know what, rides like a dream now!" I can also tell if small parts are missing from computer packages, company I worked for always got me manhandling the deliveries off the back of the trucks, saved them thousands of pounds just by not taking them off the truck! Funny thing, after a while it stopped happening, they started "weighing them" before sending to us. LMAO
