Burly Brand The Jim Bar – Black The Jim Bar is Burly Brand’s answer to riders who want less bar in front of them, not more. It’s narrow on purpose. At 26 inches wide, it’s the skinniest handlebar Burly makes, and you feel that the first time you roll between cars or thread through a tight line of traffic.These bars aren’t about looks or trends. They’re about control, clearance, and keeping your hands where they should be when space gets tight.How The Jim feels once it’s on the bike This is a clamp-mount bar with a very straightforward bend. No exaggerated sweep. No pullback that forces your wrists into an angle you’ll regret later.The narrow width makes the bike feel smaller in trafficSteering feels quick without being twitchyThe pullback is mild, so your wrists stay neutralLane splitting actually feels intentional instead of sketchy It’s the kind of bar you stop thinking about once you’re riding, which is usually a good sign.9-inch vs 11-inch — the real difference The choice between the two comes down to posture more than anything else.9-inch Jim BarKeeps you slightly forwardFeels more compact and controlledWorks well if you prefer a lower, more aggressive stance11-inch Jim BarBrings your hands up and back a bitEasier on the back and shoulders over longer ridesStill narrow enough to keep the lane-splitting advantage Same width. Same feel. Just a different relationship between you and the bike.Construction and details that matter Burly didn’t overthink this bar, and that’s part of why it works.1-inch steel tubingMandrel bent for consistent shapeWelded cleanly at the clamp areaSlotted for internal wiring, where applicableCrowned for throttle-by-wire setups The black finish is practical.
