FSTB Name?

I remember seeing an FSTB but cannot find the thread it was mentioned in. I believe it was made by Ottoman/x Racing. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks.

There are a number of FSTBs out there. Ebay, southwestautoworks, custommaxima, and cattman all cary a bar for the maximas. Search will help you out further.

Why are you interested in this particular bar? Every single FSTB performs just about the same. With higher priced bars you're basically paying for the name i.e. Stillen.

I think this is the one you want:

I like it becuase it looks better than the $30 round ones.

LegalNinja,
Checkout this site on Ebay for the OTTO FSTB,it's where I bought mine back in November.They sell for $44.99 and I believe there are three up for bid right now. The bar is a Stealin' replica. I love mine, looks great and no fitement issues either! Piece of cake to install. Click on:

Good Luck and enjoy the ride!

PS I ride a YZF1000R, so I know where your heart really is.

This is the one I was looking for. Thanks for the assistance. Does it require additional washers for clearance issues?

BTW Eye 35, this and an Addco bar for the rear are probably the only mods I'll perform on my Max before the spring; my Ninja is getting all the attention (cf exhaust, cf hugger, ss brake lines, , tires, track school and track time).

LegalNinja,
No this bar does not require the addition of any washers to clear the intake manifold, so not an issue. You'll be happy with the purchase, should you decide to install it. I also installed the Addco RSB and between the two mods the handling is night and day as most members attest. I am totally pleased. The car now handles the way it should have from the very beginning!!
Excellant choice of mods for 6R as well, especially the track school and track time. They are invaluable tools for proper/safe riding technique as well as tons of fun.(E.BOS you won't be, but wtf,lol) I've taken several California Superbike class at Pocono Raceway and have come away with a smile that still refuses to go away everytime I think about it. I too am considering the purchase of a 600cc class bike, not until next year though. The litre bike is getting too much for me to handle, you constantly have to think in nano seconds, it wears me out sometimes.
Well take care, good luck, and stay safe. Good chating with you.

szechingyu218,
No, not quite. If I use a product that I feel is well worth the money,looks great(in this case) and does the job, I want to share it with my .org brothers. It's a Stillen bar for approximately a fourth of the price of the original. How can you pass on a deal like that???

I agree with Eye 35. I won my Ottoman on Ebay. Paid via Paypal. Talked to a CSR to get the tracking number for UPS. Five business days later, on the car in approx 20 min. Looks great. Great fitment. Great service. What more can you ask for?
