Default '15 Low Rider "adjustable" risers

Been thinking about a new low rider and am concerned about the adjustable bars. Specifically wondering if/how they could be replaced with T-bars if I wanted to. Looks a fair bit different then a standard mount. Anyone know?

Tx

Dont forget if you change bars you will also need a new headlight bucket bottom mount. also keep in mind if you have ABS you will need new line with anything over 8" tall.

Ditto. You can get a headlight mount from DK Customs. That is what I used. Also if over 10" on the bars; even without ABS the brake line will need to be replaced.

Yes Kevin, the headlight brow is integrated into the clamps. If you add different clamps, it will eliminate the headlight brow and you will have relocate the headlight. I used the DK Customs kit and just mounted the stock headlight to the bottom tree.
