Many questions...........Anyone got some or had some? Win made some of the Redline V bars, now are Stu Thomson ones Win produced again? Are they the same as Win V's stickered up? Same dimensions or bigger? Stu bars go for a lot of money normally, is that just a big gyp when the a Win V's.....

Thanks for any input.

Not to sure if win made them, but still one of my fave bars, they where on my og Patterson before the starbars, these are the bars i raced with on this very bike back in the early/mid 80's...they do pop up from time to time...a nice set of Stu V Bars sold last week on ozbmx.....

Redline:
In the early Eighties Redline made 2 sizes of V-Bar - Redline V-Bars were 23" wide, Proline V-Bars were 26" wide.

The STR Series came out in 1983 coinciding with the launch of the REdline PL-20 Carerra II. They were similar to the Proline V-Bars but with slightly straighter lines and more angular curves . FRom memory they were also approximately 28" wide.

Non of the above should be confused with Win V-Bars used on some Kuwaharas usually having a "Kuzuki Japan" Decal or "Redline Approved" Decal.

Hope this helps dude  :daumenhoch:
