Default beach bars

Well for anyone interested, the beach bars are awesome compared to the stock buck horns on a Fatboy. I rode to OKC, about 70 miles one way, yesterday and man they are comfortable. I felt like had more control at low speeds and they put my arms at a better position for longer distance riding.
one bad thing is they are wider and therefore, they would telegraph wind buffering and I could feel the rain grooves in the road alot more. I just have to get use to them.
I think Harley makes some thing uncomfortable just so people will change them.

Just had the Burly Bikini beach bars delivered after a two week wait to Aus. Had the bike 3 days pouring with rain, first chance last night to try them.
decided on going up the road and back just to test them. well 200km later i came home i'm 5,11 and found them really comfy only thing knees get in the way on full lock.
And i am not going to raise them because i love look were there sitting. No chance of pics yet because of the rain ,A couple of bad pics from phone in shed.......
