Default BRCustom bars...

Well, I am patiently waiting for my set of bars from BR...and I couldnt help but wonder if anyone has blessed their bike with a set of the (hopefully) badazz bars? I would love to see pics! Ya know, just a little something to shut me up until they show up.

What kind did you order?

I know it's not a softail and I'm not sure if you seen these pics already but here they are anyway....These are sweeping beaters 1.5", 12" tall, 40" wide (end to end).

I had him custom make me a set if 1 1/4" x 14" x 30" wide with 2" pullback open apes with the spikes from the ape killers (see the attachments) Should be insane and completely one-off!

Nah, my wife ordered them...they are coming raw and...*sigh*....I'll be painting them with a rattle can. They wanted an extra $100+ to PC them. For $6.99 I can rattle can them and every time I chip them...TSSSSST..all better.

True True ....if you plan to internally wire them then I would suggest painting them after the wires are run. LOL. You'll most likely scratch them up in the process. Ace hardware makes a very nice matte finish paint. It's Cast Iron Black Premium Ace Hardware enamel paint. It's pretty durable and lays on very smooth. Just do nice thin coats.. Also... be sure to primer the bars first for good adhesion.
