【KITACO】Handlebar Rigid Mounting Collar Review

Strong is up!

There's a little bit of residual vibration, but the handling is more direct! There is quite a difference before and after the change. I'm satisfied. View detail

Installed on a 92 Grom.

I think it works better than I expected.
My Front fork is NORMAL, but I think a TuneUp'd Fork would be more effective.
Installation is as easy as Handlebar is heavy.
When I first put it on, I thought it was floating. I thought it was floating when I first put it on, but when I checked it carefully, it was fine.
I haven't driven the distance to work yet.
The effect I felt was that when I pushed the Motorcycle and walked around, it seemed more stable, and the feeling of handling was clearly different from when I moved it before the replacement.
I also think the Handlebar flutter before stopping and at very low speeds has been slightly suppressed.
I have not driven long distances, so I am not sure, but I was not too concerned about the effects of vibration.
Also, the transmission of road surface conditions was slightly easier than with Rubber.
This is just my personal view, so it will vary from person to person.
Unfortunately, the Instruction Manual misstates HandlebarNutTorque.
2.7N/m is a misnomer. Squeeze firmly.
I don't need my own Torque wrench, so I remember it was around 25N/m in the Instruction Manual when I got it with Visor as a rough guide. View detail

I'm pretty sure it will be transmitted to Direct.

JC92 can also be used.

JC92 compliant.
It is recommended to use Rigid Handlebar to increase the amount of information on the car body.
You can also experience this with the original squishy Front suspension.
But the vibration is transmitted to Direct, so it is easy for your hands to become numb.TradeOff. View detail

Handlebar is now Direct.

The rubber mount between the Top Bridge and the Handlebar Clamp has been replaced by the Material:By exchanging the color of Aluminum, the Handlebar operation becomes Direct. It chooses Gold to have purchased. It's a behind-the-scenes guy who doesn't even notice that he's replacing it. The product finish is Material:AluminumCut-out Anodized Finishing, solid construction, and just fit to the OEMRubber mount attachment point.

As a personal feeling... The OEMRubber mount can be operated by Handlebar. Limp. It is the feeling that I did, but Rubber mount absorbed the input and vibration from outside, and I could not feel the shaking of Parts which was installed around Handlebar. "Quick. It is good that Handlebar operation became Direct, but I feel that the external input/vibration is a little larger than OEMRubber. Now Steering Damper is installed. I feel that the steering damper absorbs the external input/vibration.

There are two types of parts replacement, Merit and Demerit, and please don't worry because the ride quality of OEM will not change by changing the Handlebar Rigid Mounting Collar. I think that the feeling of use is a personal feeling, and it will be changed by the condition of the body and the degree of tunings.

The purchase price is low and the replacement process is easy. As a point of caution, when you loosen the bolts holding the Top Bridge and the Handlebar Clamp, it's best to work with the Handlebar in place! Or, if you have someone to help you, it's easier and quicker to work with and without damage. View detail
