Default Nice Bars

I love the bars on this nightster, thinking about doing the same to mine. What do you guys think?

I'm sure they don't, but it looks like they would hit the tank if you had tomake some sharp turns

I really like the stock bars on the Nightster. Been thinking of putting some on my Sporty.

If you like em and they are comfortable to you (or not if you don't care about that) then go for it. It is your bike that you will ride after all.

That looks nice, something I would do if I had a Nighster.

I've talked to the owner of that bike..his name is Eric. He actually helped me pick out the same type drag bars for my N. I ended up buying them but putting on Roland Sands mini apes instead. I have the drag bars sitting in my garage if you want them. Got em from Flanders. I'll sell them to you if you're interested.

They look pretty good...don't know if I like the riding position though.

That's what has been keeping me from installing mini-apes (that and the cost... I love the stock bars! Harley must have screwed up there... Aren't they supposed to make such accessories uncomfortable, so that you feel obligated to upgrade [8D] They did the same thing with the new Fat Bob handlebars... the most comfortable stock bars I have seen yet.

I think the snap-ons look tough on the Nightster... However they do create a very aggressive/uncomfortable riding position IMHO... I agree with the idea that if you aren't too concerned about comfort (and generally speaking I am not) then go for it.
