Handlebar stem downhill handlebar for Yamaha BWs
If you want to install an MTB handlebar on your scooter, we have the matching handlebar mounts. The short, straight stems fit Yamaha BW's / MBK Booster and others and are available in different colours.
The handlebar stem is made of CNC machined aluminum and then anodized in different colours. Short straight solidly built CNC-milled aluminium stems with chamfered edge and flattened sides.
Handlebar Conversion and assembly
To mount this stem on the scooter, you need to completely disassemble the cockpit and remove the original handlebar.
Then insert the new stem into the center of the front wheel and center it. We recommend using some threadlocker during assembly and then attaching all components to the handlebar.
Note: the original speedometer and the original front turn signals can no longer be used, because they are integrated into the handlebar cover. But don't worry, we have a large selection of matching speedometers and turn signals for your scooter in our store.
which type of handlebar?
This type of handlebar stem must be used with a Downhill MTB handlebar, we recommend to use a handlebar of the same brand to avoid color differences.
To crank up the racing look you can combine the handlebar with a handlebar pad.
Speaking of which, fitting a handlebar stem with an MTB handlebar not only fundamentally changes the look of your scooter, but also affects handling; the scooter becomes much more agile, the driving style more sporty.

Scooeter Handlebar stem
The handlebar stem or the handlebar mount on scooters is often used for custom purposes, but can also affect the handling.
Function of a handlebar stem
Mounting a handlebar stem on a scooter has several advantages. Using the proper handlebar mounts, the handlebar position can be adjusted, for better ergonomics and increased riding comfort. In addition, a handlebar stem offers the opportunity to do a little customizing, there are many colors and designs to choose from to match your scooter. The combination of a suitable handlebar stem with a MTB handlebar or motocross handlebar can improve stability, reduce unwanted vibrations and lead to a better handling.
Stem and handlebar installation
Installing an MTB handlebar plus stem requires some adjustments. Replacing the original scooter handlebar means removing the handlebar fairings. So you'll also need to replace the original speedometer with a digital dashboard, probably extend the cables of the existing switches, and add new turn signals if the original ones are integrated into the fairing.
If you want to go one step further, you can replace the original grips with more stylish grips and install a handlebar pad.
