Handlebar recommendation?
Hey all. I just put a headlamp visor on my 08 nightster and really like the look of it. I want some taller handlebars than stock, something that is just about the height of the visor, maybe a few inches higher. Any recommendations? I was looking at some t bars and high drag bars, but I'd like to avoid relocating the speedo if possible. Anyone have any recommendations of some medium height bars that would look good with this setup, or have pics of theirs? Thanks!

I like that setup. Did you make that bracket or buy it? My fab skills are pretty limited. I'm thinking 8-10" bars if those are 12" on yours.

I sold the nightster speedo housing cause it wouldnt work, then bought a normal sporty speedo housing. Used some sockets as spacers and bought longer bolts. It bolts to the holes in the headlight visor. Some minor cutting on the visor itself i believe was involved with a dremel, but it was really easy to do. The only thing that I would do different, and will do if I ever pull it apart, is I would cut a notch in the metal visor bracket to make room for the speedo button on the back. For now, its blocked and I cant use it.
