【Bull Docker TAGOS】NINJA Bar Z Straight Review

I feel much less tired after a long touring.

The position is easy to ride and Large is satisfied.
Long touring also eliminated stiffness in the shoulders and back, and fatigue was much lessened.
I highly recommend this product to all Ninja riders.
The following is a list of points to keep in mind
Brake hose needs extension
In my case, the Throttle Cable was just barely usable in NORMAL.
If it becomes heavy, Extension Cable (HURRICANEetc.) can be used for countermeasures.
The drawback is that the bar is fixed in place. This is the taper, but the male taper and female taper did not match.
Specifically, the TaperSmall end was hit hard, and the seat was not comfortable. It was judged that the fixation was insufficient.
(Usually, such a design is for a taperLarge end to be hit harder.)
I modified the male taper side to correct the hit. View detail

The tight Position has been solved and I like NINJA even more.

(It's a long story.)
I installed this on my GPZ900R A7 that I bought new in 1990. I had been riding this motorcycle in the NORMAL condition except for a few details, but I had added a 16mm Spacer to the Handlebar to increase the height a little. Even so, it was still hard on my neck and back, and for many years I wished that the handlebar was about 1 pc further forward. I thought about changing to the standard Pipe Handlebar for a moment, but in order to spoil the appearance of the NORMAL, I decided not to. And, when I happened to know the existence of this product last year, and bought it and installed it, the trouble of Position for 30 years was solved at one shot, and it is the impression that the appearance is not different from NORMAL, and I liked Large strange.

As for the impression that I rode it, the forward lean becomes easy with just the right feeling, and because it is wide, it is easy to go around small. If I express it in a simple way "Position for Old Men. (laughs). However, it is still in the forward leaning position, so the sportiness is still there. I was a little confused at first because I felt like I couldn't move my body in any further when leaning in, but I soon got used to it and now it's very comfortable.

By the way, I am about 173.5cm tall. So, for those who are taller than me, the reason to choose this Handlebar is not to solve the tightness of leaning forward, but purely for the preference of the position. I think.

Before installation, a side-by-side comparison with the NORMAL Handlebar...

The base of the Handlebar is retracted.
Height is increased.
The angle when viewed from above is widened.
The hanging angle becomes Small (It is said that the hanging angle is 0 degrees)
・Widens up.

...The above 5Point changes can be seen (please forgive me if the terminology is not very technical)

But when I asked the president of Bulldocker Tagos, he said that he did not refer to North America Spec. or 750R, but he designed it to fit his own physique and average Japanese physique. I asked the president of Bulldocker Tagos about it, and he told me that he did not refer to North American Spec. or 750R, but he designed it according to his own physique and average Japanese physique. However, this is my personal opinion, but I imagine that the result was close to the direction of North America and 750RSpec.

Then I remembered that GPZ900R before A6 had two types of Handlebar, one is EUROPE Specification (low and narrow type) and the other is North America Spec. and FOR JAPAN MODEL750RSpec. It was possible to exchange them without machining. However, the Handlebar after A7 was unified to only one kind of low Type (as far as I know), and the Top Bridge was changed, so the compatibility with the Handlebar before A6 was lost, and it was not possible to replace the Handlebar of North America/FOR JAPAN MODEL750RSpec. It was not possible. I am very happy that this product can realize the position close to it, though it may not be exactly the same.

When installing, you need to measure the position of the hole for the switch box on the current Handlebar, and drill a hole in the same position. In addition, because this bar is longer than NORMAL, the position of the hole is basically measured with the outside as the starting point. Other than that, it is completed by pontification work. I was able to use the existing Cable and Hose as is. (In that case, I do not know whether the existing Cable and Hose can be used as it is. It exceeds the range. It is good to change the structure at the time of the vehicle inspection, but in my case, I intend to make my own Bar End by adjusting the length to fit within the regulations by overlapping Washer of similar diameter of Bar End.

Incidentally, North America Spec. and FOR JAPAN MODEL750RSpec. have footpegs that are closer to the front in accordance with the difference in Handlebar, so I also made a conversion plate by myself, and changed the footpeg position similar to these, I want to try the change. I would like to change the footpeg position similar to these, and try the change. View detail
