So my wonderful wife just surprised me with the z bars I have been eyeing for my 2010 Rocker. So now I have a new project for this winter. Now to pick out some risers...

 

Wide bar for skinny tree.... (my opinion)

 

That's actually just a weird perspective thing since I was standing in front of the bike holding the bars up. The bottom part of the bars are only about 10", so it's just about the same width as the triple trees. I will post more pics as the project gets started, probably after the holidays.

Here are the risers I settled on.

 

yeah I thought the same thing. There’s a bit of an old school chopper vibe I get from it where you put whatever on that fits. But then a rocker is far from old school and imo needs to be more streamlined.

 

I've thought about Z bars for my Rocker. There is something pretty edgy about them that I think suits the Rocker.

 

Some progress made on the handlebar job. I pulled the old bars last night and measured for new cables.

I measured and think I need +6 cables, does that sound right? They are 12" z bars and 4" risers. What have others done for cables? I was looking at magnum but I was trying to compare some other brands and can't seem to find a burly brand or any others that fit the rocker in chrome or stainless. I can buy the parts separately but does anyone know the stock length of the front brake line?

 

 

Figured I would post some follow-up pictures now that the project is done and it was nice enough to take it out for a spin today.

 

Looks great!
