Default Part catalog says no........

I have an 03 1200C. I want to replace the drags with the mini apes that are on the 72. I believe they are 10 inch mini's.

Part number 56079-93J

The website site doesn't list them as a fit for my bike. The riser and knurls line up, so I dont see hwy they wouldn't fit.

Was wondering if anyone has installed these bars on their 2003 1200C.

thx!

you might need new lines (brake, clutch, throttle, electric)

The bars will fit but nothing else. I put a set of standard 883 bars on my wife's 883C and the cables and brake lines just reached with a lot of rerouting, no way will anything reach with mini apes.

Guaranteed that's the reason for no such listing.

A clue is in the part number - those bars go back to 1993. So they will fit mechanically, as we seem to agree, which leaves sorting out cables and wiring if necessary. I wouldn't use those 72 bars with your stock riser.
