Bill Benton had several sets of bars. Not sure the length.

Funny you mentioned that, I recalled him saying a while back that he had a few sets.  I e-mailed him an hour ago about it... ???

That pic of the pits with all the boys wrenching away is a great pic,  I appreciate  the CR 750 daytona  bikes but I think these two bikes made my world in the 70's .  just great engineering,  awesome pic. to do all that Russ was an amazing business man, rider and natural engineer.

Why short bars ? = that would unload the rear tire, I got a set of PINGEL BARS that never po-go- [ unloaded off the 2 step ] my ZIR KZ that made 100's passes on the 1320' had them at SGMP last fall but no sale , as those 750 folks have street bikes = no bars allowed in that class.

Thanks for the offer Pops, but I managed to find a set locally that I want to try out.
