Anybody have apes on the factory risers that the Low Riders have?

 

T-bars are the way to go if you want to raise the bars and get more pullback - there's lots of options out there for the dyna. if you do decide to go for a different seat, put that into your consideration. A step up seat will raise you about an inch higher, thus changing your choices in one bar setup you want.

there are creative ways to snake wire and lines around with the OEM ones to get the length you need. The OEM bars if i recall tend to be wider than the aftermarket ones you might get.

 

Not everybody wants t bars and step up seats. Strange as it may sound

 

Blasphemy!

I actually like the buckhorn look from the 80s bikes, my 90 fxrs low rider had them and I'm considering doing the same on my 16 low rider.

 

Buckhorns are a timeless and classic look. I contemplated keeping them on my Super Glide but the wrist position was just too uncomfortable.

 

I loved the buckhorn bars on my '80 FXS... I was actually thinking of putting them on my '16 Low Rider, but not sure how'd they look with those funky, adjustable risers...

 

I know you're asking about the stock with apes specifically, but generally people put short, straight risers on for apes as the angle of force for controlling the front end changes entirely with apes. You can't align the bars near the same angle as the forks with that setup. That and I think it looks really odd to have pullback at the riser and then apes shooting straight up.

 

I think the 07 has the dummy lights built into the OEM risers.

I had the same issue with my 09, and am wiring the N and oil pressure light to 8mm bolts I found online that bring a green and red LED built into them.

 

Not my pic, but found it on this forum. Excellent idea:

 

i copied that idea when i put risers on mine
