Mine came with 4.5" pullback risers. Brand new 1986 FXSTC.
They were aluminum that I replaced with 4.5" chromed pullbacks.

Hey Kowan; You are right. I just measured mine, and they are 4-1/2". In one of my old Softail adds, it says they are 6". Go figure.

Looks like 12" mini apes with a 4.5" riser on Charlie's bike, like on the 03-04 Wide Glide. I think that the 1st pic has more pullback than a buckhorn bar. The Lorenzo bike looks like an a Heritage bar. Do I see you have Lorenzo Lamas' autograph? That's cooler than any bar change.

Here is a pretty good picture out of an old Softail sales pamphlet. They were the same up through 99. To me they are about the most comfortable bars Harley ever put on a bike.

Gold.
Yes. You are correct, Sheen has the HD BuckHorn bars on tilt back risers. I had a 94 FXDL that had the same identical bars. Lamas has apes of some type.

Hi
I'm new member of this forum, i have asked about handlebar at the motocycle in Renegade TV Series.
I know that the Softail Custom with EVO, but i don't know what type of handlebar has that motorcycle, apart from the fact that is APE HANGER
I saw, that this question was discussed, but i'm still not sure what exactly name/type this handlebar.
Can You indicate me accurate link for this handlebar ? in ebay for example
I found two potential models, but I wanted to make sure.

1 . http://www.ebay.com/itm/DYNA-FXD-FXD...0f8cc1&vxp=mtr

2. http://www.ebay.com/itm/DYNA-SOFTAIL...2d9170&vxp=mtr

or other else ?
On the first site of this thread there are pictures this handlebar, and I add two more, from another angle :

Thank in advance and sorry for my english, it's far from perfect, i know
Greetings
Mustech
