I'm finding it difficult to counter steer my Cross Bones with the mini apehangers. Never had a problem with my Fatboy but the aphangers seem to want to keep going straight on.
Any tips?

 

Had the same bars on my Custom, but never noticed anything odd about them steering.
But I wasn't used to the lower wider bars of a Fatty either. Give it time and I'm sure you'll get used to them.
BTW my new lower wider bars do seem to be a tad easier to countersteer with their a bit stiffer&nbsp\\;too. So that may be helping some.

 

I run my Crossbones bars a little pulled back from the stock, upright setting, it feels a lot better, as in I have more control. Try adjusting them before you give up on&nbsp\\; them.&nbsp\\;9000 miles&nbsp\\;since March and I was away working for 40 days without her.&nbsp\\;I love this bike!!

 

Thanks for the replies. Do you mind if I ask how far back?

 

I wondered if the rubber bushes made a difference and gave a softer mushier feel. Just trying a bit of counter steering this morning I have to us more force and much more conscious effort than with the Fatboy or with my Triumph Rocket.

 

Oh No! You mean you actually have to RIDE it!

It's way more fun that way

Not far, a little bit of rotation makes a big change at the grips. Be careful of the splines on the bars, don't damage them by turning them without being loosened all the way and have the grooves&nbsp\\;lined up when you tighten everything back up.

 

HUH?&nbsp\\; Are you asking how to steer your bike...LOL. &nbsp\\; I sure its a matter of getting comfortable with the ride.... I bet if your bars were a little taller you'd be able to counter steer easier. No two ride the same ...gotta break'em

 

I wonder if that could be the difference in feel between the springer and glide front ends?&nbsp\\; Taller apes will&nbsp\\;magnify countersteer leverage.

 

Many thanks for that, dawidmer. I'll try it.
At the moment I find it difficult to avoid moving the throttle when I'm pushing it so a different angle may make all the difference.
