Default I love my new handlebars..

My Lowrider came with the stock Buckhorn bars which I didn't like...too narrow



I'm over Ape Hangers and wanted something comfortable but different.

A mate gave me some FLH bars which I hated...too low and then I got some "High Western Bars" from the Nelson Handlebar Company and I love them!!



Totally badass, they are perfect for me and dead comfortable at speed....just thought I'd share a little joy :-)

Oh yeah...one thing...I know its a Twin Cam but it ain't what you ride, its where your head's at...and mine just isn't in the "Dyna Forum" place...if you know what I mean ;-)

That looks great! I have the same bike and am looking to get new handlebars. How do you find the handling with a narrow front tire and bars this wide? I'm looking at bar with a similar width. Thanks!

You can get decent leverage with those bars & they look good.
