Default Show off your bars and risers!
After originally wanting to go with the West Coast T Bars Slingshots, and then the Lucky Dave's San Diego bars, I think I've finally decided on a bar and riser combo. I've been looking at the Bung King risers (probably 10") and the Biltwell Tracker High handlebar (should equal 14" rise) but I thought I'd ask what bars and risers you guys are rolling with and see how you like them! Pictures are always welcome.

8" bing king risers and biltwell high trackers drilled for internal wiring. If I could do it again I'd go with pullback risers but I really like this setup too

This is basically the exact same setup I've been looking at. I can't decide between pullback risers or straight. Why would you go with pullback now?

I have 10 inch Bung Kings with the Big Als Low Low bar. I was thinking about some 9 or 10 inch pull back risers to put me in a more "upright" position

I got short arms (5'10"ish) and I wanted to sit a little straighter and not so stretched. Plus I like the look of the tach/ speedo stood straight up. Maybe someday I'll try it out. I like this setup way better then the 10" tbars I had before
