I can't help with the bars, but I will give 2 thumbs way up for the Springer front end on a Slim. Looking at your Bike, HD should have built one for us! Awesome! Hope you get the bars fitted just like in your photo.
I would love to see that front end on my Slim with my '29 style seat and flush seat pan.
I did have to reverse the front wheel. Custom cut the 3/4" axel spacer/sleeve, and machine out some of the hub to get the wider 3/4" bearings to seat like the stock ones. Going with a motto iron springer brake.
I wish I had some better shots of my bike just now, but I don't. I put a springer on my night train. I went with wild1's T bars and ran those for a few years, but I'm looking for something else.
I have to reach just a little too far. Not a huge fan of apes, but I thought some 10 inch jobs wouldn't be too obnoxious and maybe reduce my reach a bit.
Love that look! Since the day I bought my Slim I've wanted to do a springer conversion.
I'm getting closer. Found a guy on YouTube who did one. How did you make out with the ABS sensor on the axle? Any tips would be appreciated!!
