2018 Heritage Classic with Hollywood bars?
Anyone done this? I’m about to order a new Heritage Classic, but I don’t like the tall boy bars. I loved the Hollywoods on my 2016 Slim - I assume the geometry of the 2 bikes is the same, but for the HC having a taller seat position? Pics? |
The ‘18 Slim sits me way back compared to my ‘18 Heritage. Also further back than ‘16 Slim I sat on. I think the Hollywood bars on an ‘18 Heritage would work ok...they are a stretch on the ‘18 Slim though for me. I’m 5’6. |
Yeah they should work I think - I certainly shouldn't be any further 'back' than on my '16 Slim, right?
|
So this is not entirely 100% accurate, but overlaying a picture of a 2018 Slim on a 2018 HC (matching the headstock point as best I could), it would seem the Hollywood bars look great (I think!) and the reach to the bars looks fine - certainly no 'further' than the reach on the stock Slim, which I was fine with.

Those bars look great on his Heritage. A friend of mine put new Softail Slim bars on his new Heritage, have not seen them yet but he really likes them.
|
Yeah, they sort of 'lower' the profile, which I really like.
If you/your mate get a chance to post pics... :) |
I'll be glad to, we plan to switch off when we get together. He lives about 250 miles away. Can't wait to try his out.
|
In the meantime, here's another quick and dirty Photoshop 'before and after'... such a small thing, but to me it really changes the look of the bike - lovin' it...
