I have street slammers on my 07 fxst and love them. 07 parts catalog says they fit 00-later fxstb stock (black) cables.

Alien--looks like it's not too bad for you looking at your gallery, how do they feel? Oh and I'm loving the masks dude lol.

Hey Bone!

I'm 5'9 160 lbs. The Streetslammers have been on the bike for about 800 miles. I recently went on a 250 mile round trip and I had no problem with the bars.

The bike in my sig actually has the Night Train set-up from H-D. It brought the grips back and I had no problem with the bars except the look.

I was either going with some mini apes or I was going with the original drag bar look, but the bars had to be confortible. I'm happy with my decision.

Did you try the pullback risers before you put on the streetslammers?

No need to get them from Harley as everyone sells them for alot cheaper.

Do you have a part number for these risers? I like them. They look perfect

Yeah, I had the "set" that Harley sells specifically for the Night Train. I believe they still sell it. I still have my old bars around here somewhere. I tried to sell them on Ebay but they didn't move after two attempts.

They look like they are either 5 1/2" ( http://www.phatperformanceparts.com/...uctCode=490556 ) or 6 1/2" ( http://www.phatperformanceparts.com/...uctCode=490557 ) pull-back risers. You can probably find a used set on e-Bay for half the price.

I have sat on that bike and the pull-back definitely makes a big difference.
