Sure, I'll scan it tomorrow if I can remember to bring in my HyperRev book.

Thanks reecespieces!

Looks like the J's bar as far as the rear section is concerned. I am probably going to have a custom bar made. I like 3333's bar but there is no way that I will pass the broomstick test with that setup. For the top to clear, the bar has to be in front of the location of the rollhoops to be high enough. Aesthetically, I think it would look better to have the posterior bars mimic the curve of the stock hoops (ie curve towards the center, rather than outward). I have yet to see a perfect solution.

Thanks again for scannining the pictures,

Mark

reecespieces - thanks for the pics.
I like many others am going to have to go with a custom roll bar because I have yet to see something that really does what I want. That cage is getting close but I don't need/want an entire cage, just a roll bar. I like the 4 point mounting, I like the OEM hoops not removed, I'm okay with the bar being in front of the OEM hoops, but I have yet to see a bar that is made with enough strength to warrant me having it installed and I do not want to remove the OEM hoops.

I get the impression that Triple H does not want to remove the OEM hoops, but I could be wrong Actually, I agree. I'd like to have a roll bar, myself, but do not want to destroy much of the original interior to do so.

I agree as well. From what I've heard, removing the roll hoops is a big pain and probably won't look the same when restored back in place, plus it's partial wind protection on the streets. I'm not even sure the bar I posted is really functional (however, the company does race stuff), but so far it's the only design that I've liked and seriously considered getting. If any of you end up having a custom bar/cage fabricated, please post pics and info!
