Just purchased a new 2022 Fat Boy. Great price low mileage. Paid less than the sticker price seen in photo. Original purchaser changed the handlebars. Not sure if I like them but $3100 from the dealership to change them back to OEM. Please feel free to post feedback on the current bars. Thanks.

 

That should have been a deal breaker if replacement to OEM is $3100.

 

The dealership I bought the bike from wasn't HD. I took the bike to a HD dealership to see what the cost would be to have them put back to OEM

 

Not a fan of those bars either, but welcome & congrats on a sweet fatty. Enjoy many miles of smiles.

 

Thank you

 

No opinion on the bars but the dealer is out of their damn mind!! $3100.00!!! I though my dealer was ripping me by quoting $1500.00 to change bars on my Ultra Classic. I did it myself for just the cost of the bars.

Hope you enjoy the bike.

 

FWIW...

I tried a similar set of those style bars on my '01 Springer. I used Wild Ones, Chubby Springer Pullback Drag Bars #WO565.

They reminded me of the bars on my '78 FXS, that I really liked.

They have really grown on me. I find them comfortable and IMHO, they look good...

 

I personally think its a bonus, that those bars are already on the bike.

3 of my bikes have them. I put 6", on my 91 fat boy i bought. The other 2 came with them.

I really like the look of them and like Hat said, i find them very comfortable.

 

It's a matter of opinion, I suppose. I'm not a fan of T-bars. To each their own,

Instead if having the stealer change them out you can do the swap your self. Go here: https://hillcountrycustomcycles.com

Then do a few searches on the Youniversity of Tube and get a service manual. Also reach out to the vast majority of experience you can find on this site. You'll do the job as only you can do (which means it's done correctly), and enjoy the savings by taking a long ride and buying yourself an adult beverage. Just my .02. Lastly, post before and after pics of the new handlebars....

 

I’d look for an Indy that would do it for much less, and you have the opportunity to build a relationship
