Smile Another night train bar setup, FXDX.

I found a pretty good craigslist deal over the weekend. I ended up paying $50 for an '05 night train handlebar/riser setup and 21" wheel. (The 21" will eventually be laced to my dual disk hub.) It'll be a little while before I can get the wheel built, but I decided to throw the bars on this morning for the hell of it. I can't say how they ride, my bike is still out of order with a broken drive belt. They sure look better than the lame-O buckhorns that were on before. No biggie, just thought I'd share.

Before w/buckhorn bars:



After w/ night train setup:

Cool. I think you'll like the NT bars. It feels aggressive goin down the road.

I like mine as well. If you can ever find the NT cables, they fit perfect.

Well, mathematically speaking, I'd have to say that it looks approximately 144524452.54542(432+3321) TIMES better then it did before!! Those buckhorns were killing the look of the bike. Good find man!

Thanks for the compliments ya'll. I agree, I HATED the buckhorns. They were just there when I bought the bike. I actually never wanted this setup, but for $25, I couldn't pass it up. I'm still Planning on having a set of custom T's welded up at some point in the future. The bars aren't even completely installed right now, more of a mock up. I have to figure out how/IF I'm going to remount my dakota digital and tighten everything up. I want to get rid of my iso grips as well. I was at the dealer this weekend and the plain rubber grips on the new street glides were cool. (I have small hands, so they feel pretty good too.) I need to buy and wire up my key start and put on a new headlight with a bright switch, then I'll be just about ready to get my switches off the bars. (I'll only have levers and an aftermarket horn button on the bars. No signals, brights, on/off, or start rockers)
