Im getting tusk hi bends in a week or so, along with tusk gaurds and warmers... I ride an Sf... I rode in an ambulance on my last highside. I really could careless about the bars by the time I'm gliding on my back down the road lol. If i had the S though I could definitely see the use in some bars that can take a good off road beating. I will post as to whether or not the hi bends work with stock 09 Sf cables by x-mas :-D

I don't know whether they will or not, but if they don't I'll be looking somewhere else for som pro tapers.

I wasn't contacted by the warranty dept...surprise surprise. I ordered a set of Pro=Taper SE's last night. I'm still going to contact RMATV and see if I can get credit or another set of bars as spares.
edit: I contacted them again today, No warranty. lame...ahh well. I thought they might send me out another set. They would be good for a supermoto or something for on the street that would rarely get dropped, but not for a dirtbike that has a much higher chance of being dropped.
They look nice, but after messing around in the garage last night, you can literally watch them flex when you pull on them. That doesn't seem good.

I have had the same experience with Tusk bars. They are cheap, on inspection they look cheap as well. I have had good luck with my Renthals, and the best bang for the buck is MSR Dominator Aluminum bars. They look very similar to Renthals and my kids have yet to bend them. Have two sets of them to replace stock bent bars and have had no issues. They are around $45 on Amazon.
