They both look better than the stock bars to me.

Normally, a softail seat is a softail seat, with changes depending on the year and rear tire width. For instance, my 2004 softail standard can use a seat from a 2000-2005 Fatboy, Heritage, Standard, Custom, etc.

Can't you just get a Softail Standard seat?

There seems to be a specific change. You can see some photos how there is a gap to the tank now. Someone else did modify a Lapera and make it work but it took some rigging.
In my case I want a solo Lapera Bare Bones that will also fit a bib for my roll bag and I am not a tinkerer.
If nothing comes out in 6 months I may just go see my local Chopper shop and see what they come up with.

I have talked to these guys about the bars..They seem really nice..and will make the bars to whatever specs you want for a great price... I am thinking possibly putting his 16" dukes on mine. He will make them whatever width, or pullback angle, or height you want...

Dortiz.... I have talked to the folks at Danny Gray and they said they have 2 or 3 that will be coming out Feb/ Mar time frame. I am having a local guy make me one that looks like its going to be a top notch seat..Ill post the pictures as soon as I get it installed.

And no you can't just buy any softail seat for the Blackline..its a different beast all together. You can do like Jay and buy a BareBones from LePera and modify the fender but else the bolt holes don't line up for a softail seat.

Both are good looking bars. I think I like the ones in the top photo just a bit better.
