    1) What oil fill have you been using?
    Manual indicates 0.8 L. I pulled the side check bolt to verify. It was pretty close but some oil was draining out the side check hole. I don't want to have too much.

    2) What brand of handlebars come stock on this bike?
    They seem very low profile.

    I put .8 L in mine. I am not sure on the bar brand; but I "think" they are Magura.

    I put 1L in and have never had issues. The bottle is never full and you always leave some behind.

    My handlebars were Tommaselli which are very low to me. I run ProTaper High bends.

    my 08 has tomaselli
    I like the bend but the finish doesn't allow the grip glue to work. tried safety wire, hair spray, scott grip glue .... same thing left hand grips spins and spins. Don't really notice it when riding but at the end of the day its always in a different spot.

    Did your barkbuster clamps fit both bars or did you have to get different clamps?

    You may have to drill the bars as the ID is too small.

    Oops, I should have been more specific. The clamps that go around the handlebar. Will ProTaper clamp profile would on the Tommaselli bars? Or do you need the Magura clamp profile?

    I use the triple clamp mount for E/E handguards.

    I had to drill the bar ends to get the inserts in.

    Thanks for the responses.

    I decided to buy Cycras handguards with the ProTaper clamps. I also picked up a new handlebar (ProTaper Woods high). I'm all set now and will just keep the OE bars as backup. :thumbsup:
