Product Information

The Slims XL handlebars are built for riders who want height, attitude, and precision in a narrow performance-focused package.

With a 14-inch rise and slim 18-inch width, Slims XL create a tall, commanding riding position while maintaining the tight, aggressive profile custom builders demand. The increased height improves visual impact and riding leverage without sacrificing control.

Unlike traditional handlebar setups, Slims XL mount using a CNC-cut base plate that replaces the factory handlebar clamp. This design delivers a cleaner front-end appearance and more secure mounting structure.

Constructed from high-strength steel tubing and braced for added stability, these bars are CNC-notched for internal wiring to eliminate exposed cables and maintain a streamlined cockpit. Stock throttle and clutch cables are retained; only an extended brake line and speedometer relocation are required.

Innovation Meets Passion

Made in the USA

Founded in 2013 by Mike Le, Kinetic Motorcycles was built on a simple belief: motorcycle parts aren't generic hardware — they're personal. Every product begins as an original idea, designed by Mike and developed entirely in-house.

We don't rely on templates or outsourced shortcuts. Each part is shipped by hands-on fabrication experience and time spent riding, testing, and refining. Whether you're dialing in a daily rider or building something truly your own, our focus is the same — create parts that feel intentional, functional, and worthy of your motorcycle.

What Our Customers Say

Really happy with the product. Took a while to get my order but they were out of the spark plug cables I ordered. I had to email and inquire what the deal was. They were super helpful once I initiated communication. Would have been cool to get some swag or something since they took so long. But the relocator is great. I really love it. And they responded promptly once I reached out to them. Their customer service is truly fantastic.

I had some questions on some bars, so I DMd them on Instagram. The dude I talked to was super helpful. I purchased the shirt because of his response. I’ll rep the brand due to the customer service.
