My new bars!!!!!... check these out!!!!
My new bars!!!!!... check these out!!!!
Ok... so time for a change on the bars... my rotator cuffs have been killing me on long rides so i needed a change... also with the motor build i wanted something a bit lower and "flatter" for the jump on the line... Hogrida and i have worked together alot, he does all our shops custom bar fabrications and it was time to work with him on my scoot... have to say, he blows me away with his craftsman ship... first step was to figure out what i wanted... so what better way then to draw it all out
so i came up with a design... i wanted somethign that would be really wide at the bottom cause all the z bars i see are the same width of the trees and it really makes the front end look small, i did not want that... i also wanted the bars to appear that they where big apes but not be...so i got that from doing a drop and then going up with the bars... makes them LOOK like big apes but not
bear in mind i have custom risers on here that loner made me a while back and wnated to keep those... Hogrida blows me away with his attention to detail and how well he worked with me
sent that off to Hogrida... a few days later i get this from him
followed shortly after by this
then yesterday on the shop door step
so from here we at the powder pro did our thing!!!
then the final product
these bars just stressed why i use Hogrida to do all our custom bars and odds and end fabrication. his work is amazing, he is passionate about what he does, and over all... come on those are SICK!!!! took an idea i put on paper and gave it back to me in metal! i am so so stoked!!! i will get them wired and on the bike ASAP! just wnated to share!!!

Bars look good. See you left out the top secret measurements.
I know you probably checked this but it looks like the bottom corners of the bars would hit the tank.
BTW - those should be fun to internally wire. After I got done with Z-bars on the Sporty I swore not to get Z-bars again.

Get those bad boys bolted on. I didnt realize Hogrida did custom fab work. I knew he did some trik plate brackets but didnt realize that he has some fab skills like that.
