I really like the color of your Heritage. The new bars look great as well.

Love the bars and bike! One question though. Are your fangs on right? I've never really paid much attention to any, but it looks like they'll scoop air in instead of deflecting it.

Don't know why they are calling the bars narrow when they stick out 2" past both sides of the triple tree.
