I swapped out the stock buckhorns for nightster bars and stock risers. My riding position is much improved, but I don't care for the look. No offense, but I don't like apes or west coast t-bars either. I do love the look of a drag bar but will require risers to get in about the same position I'm in now. I'd like it to look similar to the fat bob bar without the extreme reach.
My Nightster bar is 32" wide, 10" pull, 6" height.
Chubby drag bars are 30.5" wide, 6" pull, 0" height. A 5.5" swept riser might help.
Recommendations?
I'm thinking chrome bars, black risers and keep my black clamp... Not sure though. My bike's theme is black with chrome accents.
Thanks, I've been eyeing the Cubby WO500's myself. Any more pics? I think chrome would look good on my ride with black everything else. I can mount the gauges off the front.
That's the best pic I have that shows how the pull back looks. It's a lot more comfortable then I taught it would be. I don't have to lean over. I can sit up tall or lean back a little. I'm 5'8" tall.
personally i love the V rod bars, they are a flat tracker style, i coated a set for some risers i was selling a while back... either that or find a stock wide glide set up, the drag style bars and riser combo and you can run 1 1/4 bars really nice
On Dyna's I love Stock Nightster or V-Rod bars with at least an 8-10in riser. Brings the bars up and back to such a nice position. Narrow the bars about 1-1.5in each side and it's a damn good riding position.
