Carlini Drag Bar Help
The Mrs. is going to buy me some Carlini bars, 1.25in original T-bars, for my 07 FXST for xmas. I am really having a hard time figuring out whether to get the 7in or 9in rise bars. Per their site the 7in are actually 7.75. All of the pics on their site are of the bars on a fat boy. Does anyone have pics, side view and front, of either of these two bars mounted on their FXST or FXSTB? The local dealer has some Carlini sweeps mounted on a FXSTB with the inverted front end and the bars seem to angle downward and not sit horizontal. Now one locally has them in stock so I can go try them either. Thanks all.

I'm a fan of drag bars but NOT when they have a tall rise to them. I would consider them for my FatBoy if I could find a drag bar with short rise. Short enough that will clear the tank and that's all I would want. IMO, tall risers is just a ugly look.

Thank you all. I am with you the 9 in risers look a little odd because they are so tall. I am really leaning towards what they call the 7in drag bar but they are actually 7.75 in rise bars. Looking at the photos the bars look to sit pretty flat. Which is what I was hoping. Thank you all and have a great Turkey Day.
