Toughest thing about the train is the handlebars. They are not comfortable for long rides. Good for about two hours then my back starts to hurt and I ride 1 handed.

 

Look through all the different catalogs, there are a myriad of choices out there. I just added some 8" pullbacks to my NT. They made a world of difference.

 

Back to my original post, another question. Can the Nightrain or FXST Custom have ABS brakes added?

 

WHY Would you want to?

 

Saftey I'm thinking. Had a few close calls, nailing brakes and having to feather on & off to keep from rear end snapping around on me.

 

Same, same... Black or Chrome is the question...

 

Just so you know also, Black is always faster.

The sun (and coolness) soaks into the blackness, heats the air and creates a "boundary layer" that creates less drag as you glide past the chrome ******. Just so you know, lol.

 

I never heard of abs for the softails but it sure be nice ...theres been a few times I locked the rear up hard lol

 

Hate abs on a car sure as hell don't want it on my bike. Anything can be done with time and money.

 

Hey Wide_Open you got any more pics of those bars and what kind are they and did you have to change your cables? That might be my next step before going with apes.
