2003-2005 Slingy.........................if its a C kite bar it will have too short of throw for your Venom...................also, Slingys have male/female ends to their line leaders which will also pose a problem (rear lines have looped ends front lines do not have loops)......................

Yes, it's a C kite bar. I wasn't sure about how the throw would affect the Venom... are ARCs technically C kites? That's the thing that got me thinking this might work. I'll take your advice though. It's very cheap... but if it won't work well I won't buy it.

You might be able to change out the depower line and/or leaders to suit ... if it's cheap enough.



Yeah... I got a kite. Or two...

you can make the throw longer by replacing the depower line........................I think you need 15 inches of throw on the ARCs, this bar probably has 10 in...............this mod will also require you to adjust your rear leaders Im thinking...............................theres a thread on here with the ARC bar specs.....................

Not sure why they both exist, but this seems to be a more updated version of the same page.

I always use Tiscali. It's a big help. :thumbup: My bar is almost finished. All it needs is a trim strap and CL.
