New rider+ Handlebar swap was created by LTD_rider
Hello everybody!
This is my first message to this wonderful forum.
I recently bought a mint kz750LTD model 80. Totally original
and with 10k miles. Beautiful beast.
The original handlebar is to narrow for me, puts my wrists in an uncomfortable
position and I'd like to switch it to something a bit wider. Is there something recommended?
I found some kz750E and spectre bars on ebay. Will they fit (outer diameter and such)?
Furthermore, Are there any meetups or joint rides in the Houston area? I'll be happy to be notified
or directed to the proper sites.
Thanks and happy riding!

I think that just about any 7/8" (22mm) handlebars should fit. My local bike shop has LOTS of them on display; I'm sure there's someplace in Houston that has a display of replacement handlebars.
