Your bike looks great. That is the exact look I'm going for. I have a stupid question now, do they make the cables for each style bar or do you have to measure for the size you need?

I went +2 on all the cables and it worked out fine.

I replaced the stock handlebar on my Fatboy with the Harley-Davidson narrow beach bar. The same bar that is stock on the SE Fatboy. Fits me and my riding position really well.

About 3-4 hrs with lunch and a few beers in between. It could probably be done quicker but I wasn't in a hurry.

Here are the widest Beach bars you can get; or at least I think they are.

I believe they are 39.5" wide.

I have the HD beach bars but moving to APEs. I'm 6'1 and need more room. I still love the bars and look.

the HD narrow bars with the 1.25 Fatbar risers is what I'm putting on my Fatboy this winter. that is the setup that comes on the SE Fatboy.
I have sat on a few bikes with this setup and it seems very comftorable...for me at least.
