Straight bars and turnplate

[BossBailey]

Anyone other than X-metal make straight bars and shortened turnplate?

 

[SJ13]

Yes... But get X! Looks and quality are the best IMO.

 

[BossBailey]

Been waiting more than 2 months for them. Tired of waiting.

Well, not sure what up, but if I am not mistaken Pat was gone for a week for havasu then I think he got back and then left again......... Have you called him?

 

[yamaslut]

he was online today... call him Boss (assuming you have not)

 

[BossBailey]

No ordered through Paul(LPW). He has been dealing with them. I prefer not to deal with them after the way I was handled when I bought my waterbox.

the blowsion turnplate an 0 deg bars works well. They aren't exactly "straight" like the x-metal ones though.

 

[BossBailey]

I need a shortened turnplate that will accept straight bars. My pole is a -2 and I need the straight bars so I am as short as possible.

 

[Idok]

what TYPE of straight bars.....there's X metal straight, or UMI straight....

 

[BossBailey]

X metal type

Boss,

After reading this I spoke with Pat. He has them in stock. I don't know what the holdup is, but Pat is a great guy to deal with and I have always had good experiences with XMetal. Not sure what happened in the past, but I'd suggest giving either Paul or Pat a call now to check again.

I ended up buying that wamiltons plate and I really like it. I like having the opportunity to use straight or 0deg bars.

Me too. I especially like the fact its still only $50. It also works on the SXR.

Very nice product :biggthumpup:

Here is my shiny new XMetal pole and other swag:

If your as cheap as I am you could built your own with a stock turnplate to see if the straight bars is what you want. I just drilled and taped the turnplate and chopped the end off of it. It has had quite a bit of abuse and is still holding strong.
