Copied from the FXDL thread...

Attachment 620961

They're Valholl TBars and Destroyer handguards. Quality is great. The Lucky Dave's were nice, very comfortable but just wanted something different...the handguards are the reinforced ones as well...hopefully I won't need to test them on some mirrors...lol. With the riser extensions they sit right at 14".

Been considering that myself, maybe I'll wait to see how it looks on your bike.

So far today I have managed to remove all the wires that ran inside the old apes, removed the controls, removed the risers.

Here are the new bars laying on the operating table ready for running the wires inside them.

I can't help but be a little sad.

You did a hella clean job fitting those bars.

I ran the left side wires through the bars, did a basic install of the controls, blinker, mirror and clutch lever.

I'm not getting used to or really liking those ape hangers at all. Comfy, I will say.
