They also make one that is contoured, which isn't attactive IMO..

then a third which is flush all the way around, but not visored..

I think the first one is the one I'm after.

I'm shocked that something I want from HD is under $100!!!!

However, somewhere either in this thread or another I read about a wobble. Between 40 and 47 mph the bars get a little wobble.

I already called the dealer and its going in friday or saturday also.
Not sure if you got the problem taken care of or not but I had the same thing and it was a defective tire. Once I had the tire replaced there is no wobble at all

Congrats to the guys and gals with the new lo's!

I have not been on here in 4 days.... been out riding... you people talk to much while I am riding lmao.

Question, does anyone have any good pic's of their lo with a crash bar or mustache bar? I really want to get one so I can have highway peg's, but can't decide between the two or if I actually want to get one.

Yeah, back in March i kept saying "I can't wait for spring/summer to get here to go riding!" now i'm sitting here in June saying "I can't wait for winter to get here so i can re-rip apart my bike and get the rest of what i want shipped out to powder coat!"
really all that's left to PC are my brake lever, shifter lever, and MAYBE my cam and transmission cover (though im questioning those two).. then maybe if Kuryakyn would get off their butts and release the black ISO brake pedal/shifter peg line, i could be happy.

You have to admit it's nice having us big bastards around....

My buddy is 5'3" and loves to go to bars with me and run his mouth.

Oh and moving heavy ****.
