To Goblin127 and ZJones::

Thanks, I love this bike. At my age, 47, it may be my last bike too. Who knows.....?

At size 9 theres no problems for me, Never even thought about it.
Theres a little over 3" from top of pedal to the bar. I have my pedal set pretty high, so you could lower pedal if it was a problem.
Hers another angle, this shot was to show someone the fender clearance on my 21" wheel, but you can see the clearance on the pedal better.

 

I like the Lindy Bars. Look better than HD's IMO. They do mount where the highway pegs are on the FXDL. These are on my FXDC.

 

Nice pics, and thanks.

I didn't think any bars would look good on my bike to be honest, but I have to say that IMO I actually think they look nice and compliment the styling.

Do you know if the bars come out any further than the highway pegs did? Just curious.

I can't wait to install now on my bike.

 

man I like your bike Lisa. That is a great picture . I still do not think the bar would do any protecting if you were to go down while riding, reason being is that mine mounts with only one 3/8" bolt on each side and one in the center.

 

I believe you are right about lack of protection. Even Lindby themselves say they are Highway Bars and not engine guards. I still think they will offer some protection, def. better than nothing perhaps? I am thinking more of the absent minded slow speed drop here, or backing out type of thing.

Everyone's bike is so pretty. Yours looks sleek and sexy in that black.

 

About a month ago I was pulling into a lot, a car suddenly pulled out, I put my foot down only to find loose gravel, Grabed a handfull of front brake , and well,, we know what happens then.
The lindys held as the bike slid and rolled over on them. No scratches or dents on the bike anywhere, except front brake lever. I do believe your right, tho, probably wouldn't give a lot of protection at cruzing speed. But they saved the day this time.
