Thanks for the pic, that helps quite a bit! I think I am going to go with the standard bar like yours.

Thanks for quoting that pic and posting it misbehaven. I've been debating on a crash bar as much as I have the exhaust. That pic pretty much settled it.

A few people have opted for the Mustache Bars but in my opinion I think the standard bars or the Nostalgic bar flow better with the bike. I just need to get some nice foot pegs and mounts for mine.

I'll have pics up probably Friday. My dad got 2 for free and mailed me one coming Thursday. I gotta spray it black then put everything on. I just got the pegs, mounts, and hardware yesterday. It's the mustache bar with the rubber things on it for feet.

Yeah I will wait to see what yours looks like, I think if I got the stache bar though I would just use the rubber foot spots that are already on it. I was just gonna stop by hd tonight to pick up the standard, but I will wait.

a buddy of mine has the mustache bar on his 2002 electra glide, it looks good, but he said he's probably going to tear it off and put his old chrome standard style crash bar back on.. he asked if i wanted the mustache bar, but the frames and mounts are different so it wouldn't fit anyways

To my Lo brotha's that have that eye for detail, The shinny bolts on the struts now have the black magnetic covers and the ones on the upper forks, tank etc.. all have been painted. I just haven't updated pics yet.

But I think these shots of the guard and trimring, give you perspective views for this style.
