I've just picked up a 1994 fxds-conv....question's are(1)....what to do about those buckhorn
bars! Thinking along the lines of a set of 07 1200r bars(+risers)...maybe drag bars...any more ideas?
(2)H-D's quick release detachable compact is $$...but it will fit right...anything else as good?
Thanks...hard to beat the evo these days ...when you look at $ and longevity.
Drag bars are good. On mine I ran all my electical wires inside them it really cleans it up. I like mine with not too much rise and some pullback. Not as cool looking as straight up but comfortable. I replaced the bushings in the bottom of the bars as well, but mines a 1988. If you go too different in overall size remember you cables might need replacin i.e.too long or too short.
I've got a 95 fxds convertible. My came with mini apehangers( about 12" rise ) and forward controls. Along with the mustang classic seat and back rest, its the most comfortable bike I've ever riden. Let me know about the windshield, mines got a chunk broken off the bottom. I haven't found and affordable one yet.
