Default Softail Slim with apes pics???

I am looking at picking up either a new Softail slim or maybe a Lowrider S... I sat on both and I love the feel of the Lowrider S but kinda want to shoot for the old school slim look with whitewalls? I did not like the short bars on the slim. Do you guys have any pics of the slim with tall bars and what style you have? Looking for options.

There is an "Everything Softail Slim Thread" topic in this section, page 7. Plenty of mod pictures.

This is Street Bob (2019 FXBB). If you change the tank, wheels, and add the fairing, it's almost identical to a Low Rider. I installed the H-D Fat Chizeled Handlebars. I would go with the 2020 Low Rider S ALL DAY LONG! No contest. If I could go back in time, I would've waited for the 2020 Low Rider S to come out and bought that bike!

I prefer the old school look also, just not a fan of the wide front tire so I went for the Street Bob & 12" apes

Hi,
I have a Low Rider S and am going to fit the same bars as you, thanks for posting the picture as been looking for one 😎. How long did it take and do you and have you the part numbers for the HD wiring harness and hoses etc? Cheers
