Default Suggestions on beach bars?

Can anyone offer advice on a beach bar setup for an '06 Deluxe? Risers, cables, etc...both Wild 1 and White Bros. have bars that look good but I don't know what else needs to be done to fit them. Thanks!

I put on Burly bikini beach bars. I had about three inches cut off the stock risers for a lower look. I got harley braided cables to replace all but I can't remember which ones I went with. If really interested I will look them up in my records...

Thanks, Bill-the bars look great! I'll have to rattle my piggy bank some. If you do find the cable numbers please PM or e-mail me...I appreciate your help!

You could buy the bars, lay them sorta where they would go and then a string to figure out your cable length (both sides).

Flanders makes a nice 1" bar, but the beach look might be better fatter...

I used the stock risers and clamps found on the Heritage and Fatboys. Bolted on the Wild 1 bars and
got a great look and comfy feel.
