Default Need new handlebars

I recently got a new 2014 Fatbob, and would like to change handlebars to a 883 Sportster style bar with low risers. Is there any problem running a 1" bar versus the 1 1/4" bar that comes on it? Also, do you have to run the wires through the bar, or can you just run it under the bars? Any help on this is appreciated. Thanks,Dave.

1 1/4 would be easier to run your wires, 1 inch bar you can still run your wires (should be fairly easy on the sportster bend). use the search function or google to learn how to run wires on the 12 and up dynas....very easy to do.

no reason to leave wires outside of bars

good luck
