Default Handle bars on Fatboy Lo

Hey guys, Well I finally saw the infamos Fatboy lo in person and to me i't ok. Hell for all of us Fatboy owners "like myself" we could turn ours into Lo's with ease! Anyway what type of handle bars are they using on the Fatboy Lo? Now those are nice and have a nice look and feel. For anyone who reads this post who have the Lo "How does the bars feel after a long ride"? Any arm nummis? or back pain? Thanks guys and be safe out there!

i have the new fatboy lo i really like the new bars they feel great. the seat is very nice to.. i could of got a great deal on a 2009 fatboy. the dealer said they would lower it change the seat and bars. the time i spent all this money it was cheaper to get the 2010 fatboy lol.....the only thing the fatboy had alot of chrome on it......but i am happy with the fatboy lo. i am coming off a 2009 black lowrider.......

I just bought the FatBoy Lo handlebars from a new owner who switched them out. Hopefully I can get them on my 07 FB and report back soon. Bought the seat as well but haven't tried it out either. So essentially I will have a 07 FatBoy Lo, but not blacked out.

probably just a new set HD came out with for the Lo. I measured mine last night, and they are just as wide as the stock FB bars but less pull back and rise.

I just bought the 2010 softail fat boy lo in the black denim, I'm having mini ape handle bars put on and mustache engine guards,the stock handle bars were too far away since I'm only 5'1" can't wait to start puting miles on my new baby, I traded in a 2009 xl883 low for it.

Any problem with the fwd controls? Are you able to flat foot it?

They're just a set HD came up with for that model. I didn't care for the first couple we got in the showroom, so now we've got a set of black Street Slammers on one. Very nice.
