Is anyone using aftermarket handlebars on there gen 2 tuono? I'm trying to get Rsv4 bars but there's not much about, I'm after bars that are lower than oem.
Is anyone using rizoma or renthals?

I don't have a gen2 but have rizoma Ma005 on my gen1 tuono. Less of a bend and sweep on them, also a little bit less wider than the OE ones. I'd imagine you shouldn't have much issue with fitting different bars on a gen2, I had some clearance issue with the front fairing on the gen1 with the brake and clutch levers hitting the front fairing, just reduced the steering lock by a few mm done the trick.

The OE bars have a couple of holes in them that a little locator pin goes into from the controls, you don't need to drill the new bars, just pull out or file down the pins on the controls, if you find they move a little just put some tape around the bar under the controls and they will be fine.

I think a few people on here have fitted Rizoma bars to their gen2 T's I was planning on changing my standard bars as well as I find them very uncomfortable but I rode so infrequently last year I never bothered. I wanted something flatter, less pull back but yet far greater downward rake. I came to the conclusion that something like the classic Jota bars might work best for me.
