I have 14 quad bend, they feel great, just remember what u wanna keep on the bars as I still have everything on my yfz450r switchs an stuff and just fit it all on, the kill switch I couldn't tho and is mounted on the bar clamp so the more room ie- wider bar the better I say lol

yer I tried to find that out my self so I could use it as a guide, but couldn't find any info on yfz, i just seen the 14 had the extra bar room and was a common choice so went with that, I do have a new 12 bend but there in the box still and haven't tried em yet Smile

I use 14 degree quad bend "high" flexx bars with yellow on the compression. I run them with a +2 stem and they are sooo good.

I tried using the blue compression elastomers but they just gave me arm pump from being too soft (i think) lol.

the part that the bar clamps attach to is different because of the quad bend, the 2 wheeler bars have a "shorter" section I think? it might have been a longer section.
And the adventure means that the bars are a tad higher than the mx version, which are low.
