94 and 98, very nice (aside from the bar ends of course). Do they have different missions in life? I think I'd be tempted to put the SIDs on the 98 and P2s on the 94, but that's just me. I have rigid days and I have suspension days.

hehe..... the bar ends probably show my age! and i prefer broken wingmirrors to broken knuckles.
i got my p2's hanging up for now. ive only been rinding with front suspension for about a year! and i can lock out the SID's. the 98 came with indy xc's but the judys are nicer.
ive got a 90 kitted out in campag but i left it in brazil, im planning a mission to rescue it. the 94 is my favourite mabey becouse of the bronze tan.

I think shorty bar-ends are acceptable on a steel Kona, riser bars on the other hand, no, no, no.

:wink:
