haven't gotten any yet, just trying to figure out if i get it, can i work with it. if i'm gonna have to buy a bender, then i might as well just buy a premade bar.....

let me know. there's a good chance I'll be ordering a small quantity from that guy on pirate soon. we could split a piece and save on some shipping.

not sure who exactly has a 1.5" die, but I'm sure somebody will speak up.

well, i checked w/ the naxja guys, they all confirmed that the rusty's bar was trash, one account was it breaking while changing lanes on the interstate, yikes!!!

they mostly recomended the JKS bar, which i found for $203....i think i can build it ok.... now, who's up for some tube bending?!?!?
