Thats a beautiful bike man. I called that dealer and was told they just received a deposit on it. Good luck with it and enjoy


Wanted this bike since I saw it in 2009. Dealer got one in and gave me a killer deal. Only had 8100 miles on it. Still want to add apes and DandD exhaust. Love the Springer ride.[/QUOTE]

What brand are those ape hangers on the black and green Springer pic posted earlier in the thread?

All great looking bikes. Here's a little different look. '97 with 9k miles.

Default New Bars on a Springer

Hi everyone,

Im new to the forums and new to owning a springer type bike. I just picked up a 2008 Crossbones and I want to start doing different things to it. I’m looking into the bars I posted below:

https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/...r-1-handlebars

How is the process of changing the bars? Are these able to work on that bike? Is there a thread already breaking down this process with pictures? Any advice and knowledge is appreciated. Thanks everyone!

Welcome to the forums. You should introduce yourself in the new members section . No they won’t work. You need to shop bars specifically for Springers. Centers of attachment are different. And method of attachment is different.
If your mechanically inclined not a hard job. Do yourself a favor and buy a Harley service manual. Buy a Harley manual,expensive, not a Clymer,junk .If you do your own work between that and what’s available on Utube and other sites you should be able to do most anything. G.

Thanks for the advice. I’ll have to get a post in the new members section too. Anyone have any suggestions for similar bars? Should I look into something custom for this type of look?
