Why change what works ? 90% of riders will never notice a handling difference with different bars.

What a weekend in revy. Wicked snow and some sun. The 9R is the most responsive turbo I’ve ran to date. Here’s a few quick pulls on a simple hill. Everyone that rode it was impressed with a fast it made track speed.

That's funny. I did notice a huge change when I went from an XP to pro back in 2013. The Polaris bar was much better. Narrower in the grip making it much easier to hold on to and better feel. Since then they have narrowed the bars and given different factory offered heights. When Doo came out with their "expert" bars it was to make them on par with what Polaris was offering. Doo did a lot of changes to their bars over the last 15 years, wonder why?

dragonweld28, Polaris should be very grateful towards you. You have probably just boosted the sales of all the leftover 9R’s the dealers have sitting around.

Ya. It was something that was talked about for a while and I really wanted to find out if would work with out fast the 9R rev's. Hopefully ill sell some turbo kits with how well it works.

Nobody copied a pro taper lol, give your head a shake, if anything they copied bars that CFR was making, nobody runs a 6” rise bar lol, they use a riser for that and then use a 1” or 2” rise bar. Yes Polaris had skinny grips because only kids and women thought the 13 rmk was sweet with its 135hp grenading 800 so that helped them to hold on better while being towed out. CFR brought smaller diameter grips ends and then doo put bars like that in the expert and everything else

Nice job, that 9R is a great base sled for a turbo build if your looking for more then what the factory can or may ever offer.
For what you can grab a 9R right now, its a no brainer if you want a turbo.

And like me, they may never notice because they don’t give a ch!t. Stock, medium height bars work fine for the riding I do and I refuse to waste any of my limited riding time trying different bars.
