So one of my biggest gripes about my Fat Bob is the handlebars. I had 14" apes on my 2013 FLS and I loved them. For the Fat Bob I personally would like to go w/ a t-bar setup (either fixed or risers w/ moto bars), but I think some apes would look cool too.
Have any of my fellow FXFB owners jumped on swapping out their handlebars yet? I'd love to see some pictures.
I saw some 11" Lucky 13 bars this weekend and I liked the way they looked. I'm gonna do a little more research on what will/won't work and maybe do some photochoppin before I make a decision.
I like the drag bars but something a little closer would be nice. The ones that caught my eye were the 7 street slammers. 7 riser t bars that angle towards the rider. Its hard to picture what would look good on this bike though. The drags really do fit it very well aesthetically. Also, I like throwing around this bike, I dont want to lose much if any handling ability.
Here are a couple of pics of the Rusty Butcher Fat Bob with Hard Case Performance 7" risers... not sure what bars.
I had a hard time digging these up as they had more images posted of the bike, including build videos on Youtube, but they all seem to have vanished.
Thanks. I have seen the RB setup before. They're 7" risers with rusty butcher bars. He did a complete front end swap (with a dyna front end) in that build.
I'm hoping to see bars on the stock front end though. Taller bars are a definite must have for me after I do my stage 1 work.
