Default Thinking about new bars for my Deuce..









Besides these and stock bars... it's all i've seen on Deuce's.

Default Apes on Deuce

I was at the South of England Rally this year and saw a deuce with 18" apes on. I thought it looked great and sat on it and seemed to give a great riding position also. I will try and post some pics.

What bars are on your bike now? What rise are they?
To me they just look a little high. A lower bar of the same style might follow the lines a bit more.

I'm 6'3" ...thought about apes(still am) but started with these 507 chubby drag bars.
real comfortable but did a tank lift for better looks.

Harley Bars, with fixed risers.

I'm leaning towards mini apes... I may just leave it and start on the wheels.
