Default Burly Scrambler Bars on a Roadster

Just threw these on yesterday, and I love 'em.

I haven't seen any scrambler bars on a Roadster, so I'm posting this for points of reference for other Roadster owners.

They look really good. I had thought about putting some on like that, but we had just puts some mini apes on my wife's iron and so I had her stock bars sitting there with more rise, pullback, a little more narrow and free so put them on a long with some 1.5" risor extensions I had on already. Really happy with stance. If not for that I'd very likely have gone your route. Your brake line worked okay? Mine is at its limit. HD parts guy told me they have a longer line as they are now listing higher bars for the Roadster.

Those look good, too. I was torn about the windshield, but it doesn't look that bad. I thought it would be way too tall.

I've been looking at those for my '06 Roadster. They have more rise than the others I have looked at and it's nice to see them on a bike.

I've installed the Biltwell Moto bars a few months back.

That would've been the other choice. I just like that these are a bit taller.

Had a set on a 83 GS850L I finished turning into a bobber . I started riding dirt bikes and liked the look of the bars. Alas the bobber had 7/8 , and now I have a 05 sporty XL1200C with 1" bars that I like.
