I could really use some free handlebars. I’m building my very first XS650 hard tail. It’s a 78 and it was bought in pieces. The main bearing went out, and so the guy tore the whole engine apart and then never put it back together. I bought it cheap, and want to make my first hard tail, but I’ll need all the help I can get as I am on a tight budget. Free handlebars would do the trick!

My build is starting to really come together but I’ve got no bars or risers. Those keystones would look great on my bike. Sign me up!!!

@ Griz – If you sent in pictures and got a confirmation e-mail your bike will be posted. Bikes are posted in the order they are received so It can take a couple days before you see your XS. If you got a confirmation e-mail don’t worry about it.

totally love this site. i look forward everyday to checking the pics and videos that are posted. sent some pics of one of our bikes, but haven’t seen them posted yet. LOWBROW is the best. i’ve used a lot of their parts on bikes.

one of my favorite bikes i’ve seen on here is the “drifter xs” by vintage customs. very nice work.

keep em’ coming.

Lowbrow was my go to place for my Triumph project and will also be my XS chopper parts source as well. These bars will be sweet whether I win them or buy them.

Been coming to this site for over a year and a half to get ideas and inspiration for my bike, maybe winning these Lowbrow bars would give me the kick in the ass to get started.

I’ve seriously been in love with the black friscos for the longest time! i’m about to order a bunch of parts for my xs today so i can be ready for spring! But i just had my 3rd kid so i’ve been doing side jobs to get money for my bike fund. So if i won those friscos man…it’d be the icing on the cake! Thank you xs650chopper.com and lowbrow for doing cool stuff like this! Thanks for the opportunity!

I’ve already got two bikes on here, Wabi Sabi, and Unsprung Hero. My next XS build will be starting shortly. Would be sweet to get a set of bars from LOWBROW!

Starting my first motorcycle build. All I have is a 1974 XS650 motor. Building bike from the ground up. Nice project to due since getting out of the military. I was forced into retirement due to injuries in Afghanistan. Got tired of setting around bored so have been taking motorcycle classes at a local community college. This bike project is part of my class so I am excited about the build. Have done research on the Lowbrow company and found that you provide great products for the motorcycle community. A set of handlebars would be a great addition to my project. Thanks for the chance to enter the contest and any tidbits or knowledge you would like to pass along would greatly be appreciated.

Thank You

I have been looking for some good bars for months now but am forced to wait for a super deal since money is tight. This would be a major blessing. Fired the bike up the other day, guess I will post the video.

I just got on to get my daily XS650 fix and what do you know you are giving some bars away. The kicker its I’m being transfered to San Fran!!!!
Oh and by the way I NEED A NEW SET OF BARS!!!!!!!!!!

This site has me addicted! I’ve had bikes since I was kid and have spent some time racing through the CMRA here in Calgary AB, the track has since closed so on to a new hobby. I picked up a 1980 XS650 about a month ago and have been stipping it down, to this point I got a few parts form TC Bros, Mikes XS and this weekend will be welding on Brat Kit from Visual Impact. I called LowBrow a few weeks ago asking if they had any 7/8 Biltwell Keystones laying around from years ago, the guys were great and searched everywhere as they have recently moved buildings. They didn’t find any but said Biltwell had somthing in the works and TA-DA! I already ordered a pair and got notification they are on the way so I don’t need them. I do want to ask the guys at LowBrow where I can get a Blue metal flake seat and blue metal flake grips?
Shiny side up, awesome site!

This is fantastic! I have actually been wanting and looking at the keystones for quite some time. To me they are one of the coolest pairs of bars on the market. I just love the straight angles. I’m not a fan of drag bars and I’m not a huge fan of apes either. I don’t like reaching for a banana when I’m riding my bike.

The keystones are the right ones for me because they are low enough of a profile to be comfortable with my long arms and tall body. Plus they look badass too!!!

Well, I posted up a couple photos and a description of what I’ve done with her so far but haven’t seen them on here yet. Hoping it shows up. Home-built ’78 XS650 Special with about $800 into it so far. Will be finished for under $1000. All fabrication and welding done by myself and my Dad. I TIG and MIG. Parts from Lowbrow and TC Bros and swap-meets and myself. Paint/powdercoat by my wife.

Basically, I’d like to have the bars because it’ll help my budget stay low and the bars on her right now are from a XR400 dirtbike that really need to be replaced. I didn’t want to post up anything until she was finished but your give-away convinced me otherwise.

Not sure how to send pics yet… Im not as smart as my smart phone but I’m building a 78 xs 650 that I bought to teach my ex wife to ride… After she left I couldnt find my self before I met her I built a royal enfield and I found the bike in the back of my moms garage and thought actually about scrapping but I took it to my shop and stripped it down and decided I needed the therapy. Had some beers and smokes listening to tunes stripped it to the frame purchased a brat kit from mike put some 883 iron shocks on it and lowered the front… Id like to cut the pipes off and run open but not sure yet… Any how’s I still have the stock bars and pretty much everything has been altered by me but the bars… Can you help me out
