I really like the look of the factory bars from the Custom and was wondering about putting them on my Low. Just wanted to put it out there and see if anyone has done this.
The Custom uses a riser and the Low doesn't, if you just did a straight swap would the bars be to low? I would like the look of the Nightster but it looks like the forks are longer on those to give more height.

 

It looks like the custom uses a 6" factory riser , and the low uses maybe a 1" rubber mount riser set.
Here's a few bar specs to ponder.

The custom bars would (probably) fit , although they would be pretty low.
You could probably go with something like these to make up the difference.

I wouldn't have minded having a setup like the low on my 48 , as it's easier to do bar mods and control vibes as needed.

Thanks Mick, If I have to go to a riser I will put the idea on the back burner for now.
If I can't find anyone that has tried this by the spring I may just throw on a set for a test fit and see what it looks like. My guess is it will be to low and forward but we"ll see.
